To quickly access health information from your website's browser, download Sarcoidosis in Scotland I was diagnosed with sarcoidosis after a 3/12 history of being generally unwell, breathless, and an eye infection. I then developed a bilateral facial palsy. Diagnosis of sarcoidosis was given and i was off sick for 3/12 from my job as a nurse. Surprisingly there was a nurse i worked with also developed sarcoid at the same time. The ward had a temporary wall due to extensive building work going on!! I have had it for 10 years and kept relatively well. Had a relapse and required steroids which are good for short periods. Ive recently returned from China whereby i sustained a pneumothorax. This was corrected with a chest drain and im now fine. i take my life day by day and enjoy full time work, family and life. Comments
