The Mayo Clinic defines ericarditis as swelling and irritation of the thin tissue that surrounds the heart. The pericardium is the name of the tissue. A common symptom of pericarditis is acute chest discomfort.
“I’ve been working with doctors and talking to my cardiologist and I still want to be out on the road; it’s really important to me, but we have all decided that it is in my best interest as I am healing to alter my shows a little bit,” she stated.
