Q: what are the symptoms of myocarditis? does it cause fever?

: Myocarditis can occur due to multiple causes and each has it own pattern of signs and symptoms. Fever may be from the underlying cause, e.g., viral infection or auto-immune reaction. Myocarditis can produce chest pain, palpitations, irregular beats, heart failure, arrhythmias, and sudden death.
