Guest guest Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 My name is Rach. I have recently been diagnosed with Neurosarcoidosis after five years of being told I had a rare or atypical form of multiple sclerois. After a gallium scan they found a lymph node to biospy and the diagnosis was confirmed. I have various neurological problems but uveitis which has taken a fair bit of my vision. Right now I'm trying to find as much information on neurosarc as I can and try and make sense of it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 Hi Rach! I have neurosarc only, so far. I had hydrocephaleus in 1997 and they had to put a shunt in my brain to releave the pressure. I wasn't diagnosed with sarc for several years and several neurologist. I'm on prednisone 15 mg a day and Cytoxin IV therapy. After 4-5 years my sarc doc & my chemo doc told me it's not working and they want to get me on Remicade but Medicare won't pay for it. My doctor gave me paperwork to beg the drug company for a reduced rate but I am so bad at handling paperwork I still need to apply for Medicaid even though I know I'm not eligible. in 'tucky Join our Sock Challenge for Orphans in Kazakhstan http://groups. yahoo.com/ group/Mittens_ for_Akkol/ grannylunatic@...
