Anyone else have sarcoidosis?

I have this lung condition and i just wanted to see if anyone else had experience of it and if they have the same symptoms? I just get a pain in the left side of my chest the whole time, and find it quite a difficult thing to live with...

My brother has sarcoidosis but he doesn't have it on his lungs but on his spleen. He is managing to live with the condition although he gets abdominal pains quite often. It took him years to get a diagnosis as it is quite rare. I THINK he takes some kind of anti-inflammatory pill for it, but I'm not sure. There are quite a lot of resources on the Internet about sarcoidosis if you type it into a search engine.

I was wanted to let you know that I was diagnosed with lung sarcoids about 7yrs ago and have the same left side pains, i also suffer with it in my eye & legs! I have been on steroids for 2 yrs now and it sort of improved it. get in touch if you want to chat! Report It
