Been struggling with this crippling condition (Pericarditis-infection of the heart lining) for 3 weeks now with no signs of recovery. Would love to hear from anyone else with experience of it.
Have had my busiest year yet on the bike, out nearly every day then whilst riding in the Lakes 3 weeks ago felt like I had no ‘top gear’ and bit of chest pain, didn’t improve so saw GP few days later, did an ECG, 15 min later I’m with the paramedics blue flashing lights to the special cardiac unit, theatre on standby!! Decided I wasn’t having a heart attack and spent next 4 days on an acute ward for tests…
Home now but constant chest pain and unable to walk for more than 5 min without total exhaustion, been told it could last 2-6 months! Going stir crazy on the sofa 🙁
So anyone else got experience?
