Guest guest Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 Hi everyone I just want to introduce myself to everyone. My name is Kathy and I am from Shelby, Ohio and I am 39 years old. I have had sarcoidosis for about 15 years. The last 5 years I have had no symptoms and not been on any treatment for it. Now, all of a sudden it is back, confirmed by biopsy. My lymph nodes in the pelvic/abdominal area are all inflamed, spleen is enlarged, as well as low platelet count, and a lesion on my brain. The lesion on my brain and nerosarcoidosis is something brand new to me. When I had active sarcoidosis before, it was everywhere except my brain and lungs. I am being followed this time at the Cleveland Clinic. They seem to have an excellen Sarcoidosis Center. I have now had my 2nd injection of the methotrexate. It is great to have a specialist close to home. When I was first diagnosed all those years ago, the closes specialist was in Cincinati. I am very happy to find this support group, specially with all the new symptoms from the neurosarcoidosis, and not being familiar with it at all.
