Hello,

I passed carefully through your question and would explain that your daughter's symptoms could be related to epilepsy seizures or cardiac arrhythmia.

For this reason, I recommend consulting with her attending physician for a physical exam and some tests:
- a cardiac ultrasound
- thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction
- blood electrolytes for possible imbalance
- an ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring for possible cardiac arrhythmia
- an EEG for possible seizures.

You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka,
Cardiologist
