Unsure as yet!

I may have A.N. and i'm waiting for an MRI. I have a lot of balance issues but otherwise feel OK, I have suffered with headaches for years but not so much over the last couple of years. I've just turned 50 but when I was 20 I was diagnosed with Pulmonary Sarcroidosis and had to have a lung removed, after treatment I have been fine and the Sarcroidosis has been in remission. I was wondering if anyone had heard of this in the community as it can attack the brain as well. I'm not a worrier but just looking for any info that I can find.

Thanks, Mick....
