I've been dealing with a recurrent pericardial effusion and had it removed twice already. After the second removal, I was given steroids but stopped them after a month, and now the effusion is happening again. I've also been on TB medications for four months. I'm really concerned about this recurring issue. Can you suggest any permanent solutions or steps I should take next?
It sounds like you are dealing with recurrent pericardial effusion despite previous treatments. Since you have been diagnosed with tuberculosis (TB) and have been taking TB medications for the past 4 months, it is important to continue with your TB treatment as prescribed by your healthcare provider. In addition to TB treatment, your healthcare provider may consider prescribing colchicine to help prevent recurrent pericardial effusion. Colchicine has been shown to be effective in reducing the recurrence of pericardial effusion in patients with a history of recurrent episodes. Please consult with your healthcare provider to discuss the possibility of adding colchicine to your treatment regimen for a more permanent solution to your recurrent pericardial effusion.

I'm feeling a vibration sensation in my left chest that's been going on for a few seconds at a time. I had an ECG and ECO test done, and both came back normal, and the doctor told me that I don't need any medicine. But I'm still experiencing it sometimes, and I'm just wondering how long it might take for this vibration to stop?
In this case, you may be experiencing palpitations or muscle spasms. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol 25mg once daily. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises or yoga may also be beneficial. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.
