Male 54 years, doesn't know how he got a sewing needle in his heart. Suffered from depression after divorce, drank a lot of alcohol, after that he was admitted to hospital for pericarditis, cardiothoracic surgeon said the risk is larger than benefit. 2 years after he complains for recurrent pain in all joints and fevers. What do you think?
