Close Sarcoidosis
I have had a dry cough for several years. Also, for years, dry eyes and a blurry brain (only way I can describe it - caused me a job change and cut in pay - thought it was due to menopause or hypothyroid, which I have had for years). Last fall, or sooner, I started noticing I could not take breaths as deep as previously. I do t'ai chi and deep belly breathing; so I am accustomed to really deep breathing. In April I had fatigue,fever,headaches for three weeks. X-ray found sarcoid.
Treatments
- Prednisone Working / Worked
- The symptoms went away quickly at 40 mg/day but have returned as I have been tapering. Weight gain about 7 pounds. Some sleeplessness. Just don't feel like myself. Energy.
