I’m relatively new to the group so I’m very familiar with sarcoidosis because I was diagnosed with this horrible disease in 2006. I had pulmonary sarcoidosis and I was terrified!! I was put on prednisone, 20 mgs for 9 months. You have no idea what this drug can do to your body after taking it in those high doses for 9 months.
