I have recurrent percarditis, which I have had since 1996. I had it straight for the first 2 years, and now I get an episode about every 6 months. I was at the doctor today showing an effusion and I am in severve pain. I am 6 months pregnant now so there is nothing they can do for me. I have to live with the pain and stay on bedrest. I do understand what it is like. Good luck.
