Diagnosed with myocarditis and splenic infarction

Posted by meredithe52 @meredithe52, Jul 5 7:56am

I was diagnosed with Mayo co ditus in November of 2024 I was put on a regiment of medicines by my cardiologist. He said to give them 6 months to work and we would retest my heart. We retested my heart and I still only have 20% of it. Punch me
Also in april of twenty twenty five I was diagnosed with spleen infart i haven't been really getting the answers from my doctors. I feel like I'm just bouncing back-and-forth.
Confirmed, I just don't know what to do anymore. I feel like it's a loosen battle. I'm just wondering if anyone has been diagnosed with myokodias and a spleen in fart. Also I did receive the Johnson & Johnson vaccine.But I only took the first shot.I never went back for the second.I'm wondering if that could have anything to do with how sick I am right now

'infarct', with a 'c' before the 't'. 😀

You may have a COVIC vaccine injury which the whole world is slowly learning is really a thing. It was suppressed by the powers-that-be for three years, but it is slowly being acknowledged that there are literally hundreds of thousands of people with pericarditis, myocarditis, brain fog, some unable to stand or to get out of bed, and the common denominator is at least two of the common and first-released COVID vaccines. However, it sounds like nobody you have seen is willing, or able, to pinpoint the probable cause for your two syndromes.
When you say 20% of your heart, do you mean an ejection fraction? If so, it's an exceedingly low EF, and you may need treatment for valve malfunction or some other underlying cause.
Im not a health care provider, nor am I trained in anything medical; I'm just thinking through what I know and understand, but knowing almost nothing about you and your history, or about your medical circumstances. If it were me, I'd pin the cardiologist to the wall and ask for a frank assessment, including why his six months have passed and nothing has changed...at least nothing he has passed on to you.

Hi @meredithe52, and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! I am so glad you found your way here. You are dealing with a lot learning you have both myocarditis and splenic infarction.

I am certainly not a medical professional and learning more reading through the helpful comment from @gloaming, above. You mention “doctors”, plural. I do have a pretty complex health journey myself that can be exhausting to navigate. Trying to keep up with what your doctors understand is tough on top of how you must be feeling.

Your conditions are both serious and need your attention so that you know when to seek out medical care and how to best take care of yourself day to day.

Do you have someone walking through this with you? If you are comfortable sharing more it may help others know how to comment. What symptoms are you dealing with? What doctors do you see in addition to your cardiolgist, and when do you see them next?
