General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

I think she may be having tachycardia. I think the main reason for it can be hypoglycemia. If she is a diabetic and treated with insulin this situation may be caused by it. Also, in some people may be first sign of diabetes this reactive hypoglycemia. Please test her fasting glucose levels, postprandial glucose levels and HbA1c.

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