I had idiopathic acute pericarditis several years ago with two months of anti inflammatories keeping it in check, but ultimately 3 days of low dose dexamethasone finished the job. My case was thought to be autoimmune - similar to the cytokine storm spoken of with COVID-19. Very effective and potent steroid.
