Re: What are the Symptoms of Pericardial disease
Hi there,
We have some information surround heart health on the talk health website so feel free to look at these:

I have attached a link below for the NHS website for Pericarditis. https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/pericarditis/
Although with the potential symptoms we would recommend you contact a healthcare provider directly.
Always call an ambulance if you have severe chest pains
Thanks

Re: What are the Symptoms of Pericardial disease
Chest pain: This is one of the most common symptoms of pericardial disease. The pain is often sharp and worsens when lying down or taking a deep breath.
Shortness of breath: Pericardial disease can cause fluid to accumulate in the pericardial sac, which can put pressure on the heart and make it difficult to breathe.
Fatigue: Pericardial disease can cause fatigue and weakness, especially if the heart is not functioning properly due to the pressure from fluid buildup.
Swelling: Pericardial disease can cause swelling in the legs, feet, and ankles, as well as the abdomen.
Palpitations: Some people with pericardial disease may experience an irregular heartbeat or palpitations.
Fever: Pericardial disease can cause a low-grade fever in some cases.
Dry cough: In rare cases, pericardial disease can cause a dry cough.
