Aches n pains

AmethystAngel profile image
4 Replies

Diagnosed a couple of weeks ago now with Sarcoidosis of lungs and lymph glands and also have Sarcoids on legs... I have noticed this past couple of days that my aches n pains seem as though they are becoming more frequent and more noticeable. Can anyone give guidance to if this could be weather/heat related or part of the condition that this gets worse. I am on steroid treatment and have also noticed that my bottom jaw is starting to feel sore/tender to the touch... Not sure if this last part is down to the start of my new sexy looks (moon face) xx

nhs.uk/Conditions/sarcoidos... Some info here.

As for the Moon Face it is a common issue with Steriods. Might be worth a visit to teh GP to discuss in more detail?

Be well

Thank you Tad, I contacted my GP and had bloods re taken on Friday to check bone profile and for inflammation so will see if anything comes back from them.

I really need to go over and see my GP again as I feel I have traced the start of the Sarcoidosis back to this time last year in which case I'm wanting full heart check to make sure it hasn't moved in there. Plus I feel really, really ill at present to the extent I'm worried that I feel the way I do. If I do the slightest thing it wipes me out completely!
