Myocardial oedema on the apex of the heart

Finally I got my MIR results. They show that there is still myocardial oedema on the apex of the heart. There was a mis-communication between my GP and my cardiologist. The GP stop the colchicine 3 months ago. And the cardiologist assumed I was still taking the drug. I asked my GP if the inflammation worsened because I did not take the medication for over three months (I am back on it now) and why the inflation has not gone after 9 months. The answer that my GP gave me was that this is specialized knowledge and I need to wait to get an appointment with the cardiologist. But the appointment will be at the end of April. The lack of answers is giving me panic attacks.

Added to this I am concerned that the inflation and the colchicine put me in higher risk for the corona virus.
