pericarditis info greatly needed

hi,

 Hi mike, if you make it baack to this site, sorry you did not get any responses, usually that means the people who are on, like myself do not know anything about the condition and are hoping someone will come along that does.  did yu find any answers elsewher?  by the way, welcome to our forum

no i did not find answers anywhere else i wish i had answers for others myself included not even doctors can give me answers so tell me how long have you had pericarditis and some of the stuff you deal with  thanks again

 

 i do not have i\that, that is why i know next to nothing about it, i have coronary artery disease.  mike, if you go way back on hte posts list you will see other topics from two or three weeks and even months ago that deal with your issue, you can probably find something there.  i do not know where everybody is, on vacation i guess. usually you would get at least 3 or 4 responses. this is a great site, do not give up on us.  the more people who just peek in and help others with what they know the better our forum will be. do you mind explaining to me what pericarditis is.  you are awful young to be needing all these things the doctors want to do. i know they must be taking your age in total consideration.

 mike did you drop down to the post made on pericarditis, my goodness it had 59 responses. did none of that help?

Hi mike, Welcome to Healing Well forum, we are happy to have you join our community here.  I dont have Pericarditis either so I am not going to have any personal input to give to you on this...I am sorry that others havent responded either.  Sometimes the heart forum here can be alittle slow.  We do have a thread that is dedicated to Pericarditis so I will post the link for you below and you are more than welcome to post in there...I am sure that the members who post to that thread will be able to answer your questions.  Again I am very sorry....
