New to Sarcoids/have questions

I was diag. with sarcoids in june. My problems started with my eyes. Had a biopsy done on my eye. Came back sarcoids. I was on Steriods and have been slowly weaned off of them. I stil have some eye pain, but eye dr. doesn’t want to put me back on steriods.

My question is I’ve been having yhe following symptoms and wonder if they are related to sarcoidosis I have a constant sore throat Pain in my knees and feet. Last night the pain in my left foot was so bad I could barely walk. Pain is always there, just sometimes it’s worse than others. I had MRI’s,cat scans, blood work, pluminary work ups, etc. I have enlarged lymph nodes in my chest.

Just wondering if anyone has any advice. I have an appt. with rheumatologist the end of Jan.(1st avail. appt.)
