Anyone know about sarcoidosis first hand?

I was diagnosed with this malady- never heard of it- and haven't spoken to anyone first-hand. The web medical stories sound horrid. The Dr. simply states it can take several directions, but is rarely terminal.

My husband was diagnosed with sarcoidosis,10 years ago.
He had tumors in his lungs and behind his eyes.
They did a bi-opsy of the lung tumors and left them where they were,but his eyes were a different matter all together.
He had High doses of steroids which he took orally for 3 months, and then they gave him steroid shots in both eyes.
That fixed both the lung problem and his eyesight.
We still see the specialist 1time a year to check that it hasn't returned in a different area.
Good luck to you.
