Not much but I almost had a heart attack.

Sooo back in 2016 I had a pericarditis. Nothing bad, just a slight inflammation of the heart's outer membrane. You can see it on an echography.

Sooo cue 3 months with a lot of aspirin, echographies and x-rays. And then, it's finally cured (we can't see anything on the echo anymore).

But my heart still feels a bit painful so I go to the doc. I ask for an additional echography because I know I'm still sick. The catch is that pericarditis (mostly harmless) can evolve into myocarditis which you can't always detect on an echography and that is much more serious.

Sooo. I go to the doc. Have an echo. He says "I can't see anything. This is very bad news, you may have a myocarditis. Go have an MRI now.

So I rush to the hospital and manage to have an MRI scan in the same afternoon thanks to my mom.

I'm super stressed because I have a potentially deadly disease (the list of symptoms on wiki includes "sudden death" lol).

Turns out I had a simple pericarditis (the harmless one), but it had moved to a location on the heart where the doc couldn't see it with an echography only.

A funny bonus:

When the tech hands me the results of the MRI scan, he points a certain area on my heart and says, "Here are your results. There is no myocarditis, but there is a myocarditis."

My mom and I are instantly "what the fuck can you repeat please" because we know he had it wrong but we didn't know in which direction.

Turns out he wanted to say "there is no myocarditis but you have a pericarditis" and not the other way around, phew.

In the end the disease simply disappeared after a few months.
