Today my Primary care doctor diagnosed me with pericarditis for now atleast and is giving me NSAIDs for a few weeks to see how I do. As far as symptoms go it lines up, but no ekg, ct scan, or X-ray I’ve had done showed anything that would indicate pericarditis. I also asked me doctor if I should get more tests done and he said there was no need. Should I get another ekg and maybe an X-ray just Incase?

Hi @cjfutrell, I moved your post to a discussion about pericarditis. We like to keep like conversations together to give members a chance to connect with people that have shared issues and diagnoses. That way you don't have to respond in multiple places.

What symptoms are you currently having that align with pericarditis, CJ?
