I'm happy for you that you aren't mad, as there is no reason to wear the burden of anger in your life. At a young age I had pericarditis (idiopathic), which developed into both myocarditis and pericarditis. I've now had pericarditis off and on for over 10 years now and hope that it never comes back for your child. "I think I can say we are not happy about not having been provided with all of the information before he got his shot." You pretty much hit the nail on the head here and is my biggest gripe about this whole fiasco. I'm not sure about your situation now, but if this disease recurs and you feel like your kid's heart doctor has no idea what they are talking about, I recommend either Mayo Clinic or Cleveland Clinic. I don't have Facebook, but I've been told there are many support groups for this disease as well there. Good luck to you, and my prayers go out to you and your family.
