Close Sarcoidosis
I have sarcoidosis in my lungs and skin and have been on prednisone and methotrexate off and on for two years. Prednisone gave me cataracts, etc. Typical sarc stuff!
Treatments
- Methotrexate Working / Worked
- made me very sick to my stomach.
- Prednisone Working / Worked
- works while I'm on it, but it comes back in my lungs right away, and worse. Gained around 60 pounds, knocked out thyroid, got cataracts in both eyes.
- Gluten Free Diet Working / Worked
- helps a lot with joint pain! Better energy clearer thinking and weight loss.
