    • About Me

      I am trying to cope with this disease as best I can. I also have sarcoidosis along with everything else. But God keeps me going, and for that I am very thankful. Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow." Mary Anne Radmacher

    • I’m With You

      From FOUROCLOCK May 25, 2008

      48-year-old, here, too, from SC! Thank you so much for the lovely quote. I'll be sure to remember it and commit it to my memory! I think one thing that helps SO much is to find others with sarcoidosis and share your experiences. To me it's comforting to see that my situations is not different than others. You're in a good place!

      I have been taking Immuran for years. During the first year on it my hair all feel out, but did grow back. I really have not had many side effects, except that I have to stay away from anyone who has anything contagious, as my immune system is very compromised.
