About Chronic Constrictive Pericarditis
Chronic constrictive pericarditis is a serious condition where the sac surrounding the heart stiffens, restricting its ability to pump blood effectively. This can lead to fatigue, swelling, and shortness of breath. Managing this condition often requires ongoing medication, which can become costly. TheDrugClub helps members afford these vital prescriptions, easing the financial burden of treatment.
What is Chronic Constrictive Pericarditis?
Your heart is encased in a thin, two-layered sac called the pericardium. In chronic constrictive pericarditis, this sac becomes thickened, scarred, and rigid. Instead of allowing the heart to expand and contract freely, the stiff pericardium squeezes the heart, preventing its chambers from filling properly with blood. This 'constriction' leads to a backlog of blood in the veins and reduced blood flow to the body, causing a range of symptoms.
Common signs of chronic constrictive pericarditis include persistent fatigue
