This patient support community is for discussions relating to heart rhythm issues, arrhythmia, irregular heartbeat, implanted defibrillators, pacemakers, and tachycardia.
Infection and fever can both cause you to experience tachycardia. I hope that you are taking an antibiotic for the Strep infection. You should make sure that you are keeping yourself well hydrated as well, dehydration is another problems that will cause your heart rate to be tachy.
I hope that you are feeling better soon:)
