Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Every thing in your query is in short terms.
As PE means pleural effusion as well pericardial effusion ( as in your case).
May be pulmonary embolism, so these terms are ambiguous.
H C G ( Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin ) drops , if I mentioned than sorry to say available only in injection form , so try to write down in full form.
Good luck.
