Heart Failure, Myocarditis and Coronavirus?
I believe Coronavirus causes
Myocarditis
, which is inflammation of the heart muscle, causing inability to pump. It’s a potentially devastating condition apparently that can cause instant death. It therefore sounds like I should avoid catching Coronavirus like the plague? Any thoughts?

Thestorm here adding in regards to my late Saturday post 🧡
My GP did not apply the proper labs needed to help find these on going problems.As
Myocarditis
can be difficult to diagnose. GP did not send me to a Specialist sooner. I am upset with him for dragging feet on all; my symptoms.

Chest/back pain with breathlessness. Any leads please?
Going crazy with it really, but from reading, symptoms seem similar to what people have had for
myocarditis
. Any ideas or similarities? Or else i guess i have just got to bide my time until i can get investigations, whenever that might be. Pete.

myocarditis - stopping colchicine suddenly causes relapse
Hi My friends had
myocarditis
since may 2019. Finally diagnosed properly after many trips to A&E. He was getting better but two bad relapses but has two weird issues: Ok-ish during the day but at night or in any resting state it can flair back up. Sudden chest pains. Painful thumps in his chest.

Newbie and worried about various heart things.
No idea if this ectopic thing is because of a virus (like
myocarditis
), hormonal (I am 48 and periods been odd this year, and this one 3 weeks late), or thyroid based.

Update - It's not myocarditis!
That's the good news I guess LOL. Unfortunately, when they dug into it a little more and performed more tests, turns out I have POTS. Whether or not it's secondary to Lupus or Lupus underlies it, they have no clue. All we know is that I hit all but 2 symptoms across the entire syndrome, failed the tilt

Just saying Hi :)
I had
myocarditis
and pericarditis in 2013-2015 I’ve felt like something wasn’t quite right for about a year, which still really no answers for that, palpitations and shortness of breath. (Possibly my weight, 14stone 5ft4) Just diagnosed with high bp, highest being 206/117 I was terrified.

Running
But then I ended up in hospital with
myocarditis
. That set me back a little and my rowing has had to be stopped altogether. However, Since the hospital and recovery I have run the local parkrun twice. First time 27:32 and second time 27:18.

Hello :)
I was diagnosed with Dilated Cardiomyopathy and
Myocarditis
in March 2006, after a virus attacked my heart muscle 6 months previous. The scar tissue means I also have VT, AT, AF and thousands of PVCs per day.
