Does Scarlet Fever Cause Weakness And Low Energy Levels?

Scarlet fever as an 8 year old. Ran track and always had to lay down after a race. My whole life, doctors said I had a heart murmer . Had a bad episode while in an airport overseas and spent time in a hospital where the doctors said I had atrial flutter. Treated by ablation. Now I am weak and lack energy. Was scarlet fever the cause?
