@neel Thank you. I feel like we have to research and advocate for ourselves. The cardiac doctor wanted me to taper more quickly than I did and after experiencing the Flare in July and researching more - I went with the clinical research on pericarditis which is a VERY SLOW taper off one med, and then the next and then the next. Finger crossed it works once I'm off all meds. Best to you as you heal as well. And yes, God Bless you too. I had an experience after I was brought back with CPR that solidified my faith.
