Sydenhams chorea

My 7 year old daughter is showing signs of Sydenhams. These symptoms are involuntary movements of her right arm and affects speech, facial muscles and her ability to coordinate. We've had mri/lumba puncture/ECG and echo and all seem to be ok. They think it could be caused from a strep virus. Has anyone else's child had anything similar?

Hey, can I ask how is your daughter doing now? My daughter had a recent strep infection that wasn’t treated with antibiotics and is now having similar things. Well wishes to you

My son had SC in January this year, he had extreme symptoms and was on anti biotics for 3 months, he does still suffer some symptoms.
