I am almost certain I got pericarditis from the Pfizer vaccine. Got it several months ago, still feeling the effects, I am furious, I’m in the military. Don’t feel like I can do my job anymore!
Devil frog. Same. Active duty military. I was diagnosed with myopericarditis after my second dose. I am still 5 months in and trying to recover. It’s miserable. How are you doing?
I'm in British military, got diagnosed with this three weeks ago. Pretty miserable, seems to come and go. Doctors prescribed me with anti-inflammatories but doesn't seem to do much, anybody been treated got any recommendations?
I was diagnosed with Pericarditis. I have been on a low dose asprin and plavix for about 18 years. Because of this I was sent home with Colchicine and Tylenol. I'm scared it will come back. Any suggestions?
I have pericarditis but no pericardial rub is that possible? I have effusion. The pain I experienced ER doctors had no idea what was wrong and sent me home with muscle relaxer. It was only when I called the ambulance for the 3rd time that they saw I was in afib then I was diagnosed at hospital I never want that pain again it’s excruciating no way to sleep no laying down breathing is painful one of the worst pains I ever felt.
@@mxer822 i am now feeling a lot better. Still hurts on my left side when I sleep on it. But I recovered pretty well. I think rest and sleeping is what helped me the most
@@madmonkey642 same here, I notice it when sleeping on my side as well. At first I couldn’t even lay down. On my back. Then gradually healed enough to do that. Now I can sleep on my side with some minor pain. Almost like a dull ache. Seems like symptoms come and go. Good days and bad days. Overall the bad days aren’t as bad as they were
I'm in third week recovery from bacterial/viral pericarditis (began as stomach bug) on a 4 week decreasing regimen of indomethacin, metoprol (1mo), and colchicine (3mo). I'm back at work 'light duty'. As an otherwise very healthy, fast healing 30y/o, is a 3 month hiatus from exercise really that necessary? It struck fast and hard, just like the precursory stomach bug, (I felt like I was going to die for a couple nights and morphine had absolutely no effect) but assuming my system has fought back the pathogenic cause, is it reasonable to ease into heavy exercise in a week or two?
Is Dr. Klein able to recommend a specialist in Salt Lake City, UT? I have been undertreated for Pericarditis and it has been coming and going for a year now. Going to the Cleveland Clinic is not an option.
@@habibabdul1538 yes... started with azathioprine around Christmas time and we're now down to 5mg of cortizone plus colchicine and azathioprine. Then if all goes well (because usually when I'm down to 5mg I start having issues) until the end of this month we;ll go to 3mg of cortizone and then 2 and so on
I went to the cleveland Clinic to see Dr Klein for my case. He is indeed the world expert on this disease.
Dr. Klein is awesome! Hoping him and his team can cure my Acute Constrictive Pericarditis...so tired of feeling bad.

Whole food plant based diet can help with inflammation.
