Hi thank you for messaging.I got a cancellation for my mri and had it done they said it was overall normal my Ef a little lower but say it’s normal . No myocarditis like there was before.They said may still be pericarditis as doesn’t always show on ibrobrufen for the last week been getting pain down my left arm and neck on off it’s strange, not sure whether to speak to cardiologist as I don’t have a follow up yet xxx

Hello :-)

That is good news you got a cancellation and that things were looking more or less normal :-)

If it were me I would try and get to speak with someone about the pain down your arm and neck

I would try and see if I could speak with the cardiologist even though that is not always that easy to get to speak with them but I would speak with my Doctor and get their opinion :-)

But I am glad you have had it done and let us know how you get on :-) x
