(Additionaly, too sarcoidosis - Heerfordt Syndrome Subacute sarcoidosis)

Sarcoidosis starts Somewhere & that somewhere was my eye...

I didn't have pink eye 

It was Ocular Sarcoidosis...

- What's important is not to ignore symptoms...

With Ocular Sarcoidosis of the eye/eyes a medical eye doctor is needed; to primarily look for anterior, posterior or paniveitis #uveitis... 

A Medical Eye Doctor!

Such as - An Ophthalmologist, Uveitis Specialist or Retina Specialist.. 

It's not just a Lisa problem...

Sarcoidosis is an Inflammatory disease-

- Sarcoidosis, has no respect of person because it can effect people of all ages, races & nationalities & backgrounds --

You are not alone!

- I too have Sarcoidosis...

SAR-KOI-DOSIS, it's not just in my eye!  

Its in my entire body, systemic sarcoidosis as sarcoidosis can effect any region of the body or organ.  I know first-hand that the journey of sarcoidosis is lonely and mentally exhausting doubled with physical exhaustion from fatigue.  Also, from just having sarcoidosis an exhausting in the journey, while doctors figure out whats wrong.

- It is absolutely, A journey into a type of no man's land and I hate cliches...  

My rheumatologist, diagnosed me with sarcoidosis.  Sarcoidosis, acutely started in my right eye an eventually chronic; as well as my skin.  My doctor stressed to me that even with autoimmune suppressants; some sarcoidosis patients have some degree or total loss of vision. This is when I was forced to become aware! knowledgeable - About-Sarcoidosis Hence,

#Due Diligence as a patient with sarcoidosis.

I call it the journey of sarcoidosis and its exactly that until you get an official diagnosis of sarcoidosis.

Sarcoidosis, Fatigue is alike to a day in the life of let's say a grandparent... who awakes early after sleeping all night, bathes has breakfast and then watches tv in their favorite recliner.  You notice that they have slept the day away... watching tv, but actually sleeping in their recliner all day.

It's brushed off their old and that they slept all day... slept the day away.   Mind you their happy in their recliner chair no complaints, not one.  Why, I say... they have no energy, and we call it being old.... to sleep all day after having slept all night, how is it possible!

Conversely, and similarly... this is how a person with sarcoidosis feels as it relates to fatigue, exhaustion, no energy, exhausted even after sleeping all night!

Lastly, A little mindfulness... keep in mind tired is remedied by sleeping; verses tired/exhaustion when you have sarcoidosis is not remedied with sleep. Sarcoidosis is now known to be a common chronic illness that affects people all over the world living with sarcoidosis

This Blog is for me, you...

Me You & Sarcoidosis!

Who walk alone until there is a diagnosis that you have sarcoidosis; which sometimes can take years... or for some may have already taken years!
