It's hard to say how sick you can get, it's difference for everyone we are all dealing with different levels of this disease. For me it's all over, my lungs, under control with Plaqunil, Brain, spine, and on Remicade for that, and that is really helping. I have lesions all over my body, it seems to like my face, some days I feel like a school girl:) guess that's a young feeling. But like I said the most important thingis to get good doctors, and find a treatment that works for you. I have been through a few treatments, that worked for awhile then they had to change it. I have had Sarcoidosis since 1994, and although not an easy road, I have made it by adjusting my life style, and adjusting meds, and adjusting the knowledge people have about this disease. I live one day at a time, that's all I can do, and that's all we are given, so don't worry about tomorrow, it's not even here yet:) Blessings to you, Marla On Sat, Feb 21, 2009 at 8:05 AM, Mona Burke <haleysgirl321 (AT) yahoo (DOT) com> wrote: as I said I'm new at this.
