Hello Wanda, I just joined this site and am fairly new to Sarcoidosis. I had never heard of this autoimmune disease until last May. It affects, specifically, my lungs and my eyes. I'm just trying to figure things out and connect with others who experience the same type of issues, although I recognize Sarcoidosis tends to treat each of us differently. I look forward to learning/sharing/discussing/listening to you and others on this site.
Hi Wanda,
Still new to this site. However, I was wondering wether or not you still have the Dr. in Oshawa that you mentioned. I live up un Fenelon Falls but I know Oshawa really well. Does this Dr. specialize in Sarcoidosis is my most important question.
Hi Wanda,
Thanks for the welcome! I see you're from Port Hope, do you have any support in your area? If you don't mind me asking, where do you go for your medical support?
I hope that eventually sarcoidosis will be recognized for what it is-DEBILITATING and very serious. When I was first diagnosed about 15 years ago I was told that I would never get sick with it and was never told to get regular check ups. When I did get sick with it 7 years later I was told that what I have is just a nuisance. Well I am here to say it is much more than that. Doctors need to take it seriously. My whole life has changed because of it. This is a serious disease for some of us.
Hi Wanda, I live in Cornwall , Ontario, so not so far from you if you take the 401,, I see the exit for Port Hope but have never been there.
Im sorry you are sick with Sarcoidosis, I do not wish this disease on anyone thats for sure; yet it can always be worse! I would love to correspond with you anytime my email is [email protected] talk to you soon (Im not sure if these posts are public?) |
