Suggest treatment for sarcoidosis of chest
Patient: I am a 63 year old male, diagnosed with IC some 20 years ago. 2 years ago I was also diagnosed with Sarcoidosis in my chest which manifested itself as an annoying cough. I have been taking oral steroids to help manage the Sarcoid; however I noticed that my IC at this time improved. More recently I have been diagnosed with Neuro- sarcoidosis, apparently the sarcoid has migrated up through my central nervous system and affected my vision in that I now had double vision! I am currently on 35g of steroid per day and my IC is improving beyond measure. My double vision has also improved and life hasn t been better. •     IC and Sarcoid are auto immune diseases could it be that they are somehow connected. •     and have you heard of steroids making IC improve. Life is good I just wanted to share this with people if it could help them. Doctor: Hey there,I think there is no connection between ic and sarcoidosis.But yes as both are auto immune diseases treatment for both are same.And thanks for sharing with us.
