Sarcoidosis Support Group
Sarcoidosis is an immune system disorder characterised by non-necrotising granulomas (small inflammatory nodules). Virtually any organ can be affected, however, granulomas most often appear in the lungs or the lymph nodes. Symptoms can occasionally appear suddenly but more often than not appear gradually.
i was told i had sarcoid 9 years ago i was bad got depressed and very lonely but i kelpt a job, i still looked good and started working out again, i met a girl a year later we got married. I told her when we met i was sick but she said that she can deal with it and did for a while, then it came back very hard it got in to my skin very badly on my face and all over my body, i got very week and even more tired, they put me back on preds, and the skin got little better but i got weaker couldnt work had to go on ssa, since then my wife has been mentally abusing me, i went to sleep behind the wheel and broke my hip no insurance have no car no job no surport, she tells me to leave everyday but i dont have no place to go and just got told i have diabietes from the preds, what should i do.
I have heard that people with chronic illness are abused quite often.
You need to be somewhere away from her. I am so sorry that you have nothing. No family to turn to. I know living with this disease is very difficult. There must be some social services that can help.
If you can start calling people that might be able to get you into government housing. I wish the very best for you.

i am so sorry to hear what is happening to you.. i totally agree with angela56 that you need to contact someone.
being emotionally and verbally abuse is a ugly thing for someone with a chronic illness.
the year i was dx with sarcoidosis my life totally changed a lot. my wife also left me due to my sickness during that same year when i was dx. i was devastated at tht time, i was also out of wrk, but started to wrk for myself, cause i couldnt get work at that time and up to nw due to the sarcoids.
i know its very hard if you dont have anyone to go to or even have that one person we can count on to support us in this illness. even though my parents are still there it feels like im still all alone.
for the past five years that im divorced now its still difficult to be or get someone cause of the fear they will do the same.
i wish you all the best and many more cableman. my prayers is with you and who all is going through difficulties at the moment.
