How Can Pericarditis With Small Attacks Be Cured?
I am still dealing with the end of this viral infection and have pericarditis. For right now, my cardiologist has me taking 600mg 3x a day of IB. I did have a small attack walking to work downtown Chicago this morning. This just makes me so nervous. How do I know if I will ever be cured from this?
