Thank you! This all started 3 months ago my sinuses were 100% blocked for two weeks. It was hell I couldn’t sleep or breathe right. I had a sort of panic attack at one point and then an asthma attack as well. Since then I have had constant chest pain sometimes bearable sometimes intense enough for me to go to the ER. EKG chest X-ray ct scan with contrast blood tests all come back good. I was thought to have pneumonia which wasn’t true. They then thought it was just anxiety, but my pain never goes away. Now my current doctor thinks I have pericarditis and put me on ibuprofen after saying he would try and put me on colchicine. Based on my symptoms of constant chest pain, shortness of breath, and pain that can radiate to neck and shoulders and back, and instant intense chest pressure and heaviness when lying on my back. I want to go back to feeling how I was before all of this. I. Ant move around as much these days and my legs/back/ feet are in pain on and off now from being sedentary. I don’t know what else to do, since none of my tests have shown anything unless they were overlooked.
