Question 2

I've recently been diagnosed with sarcoidosis and I'm feeling really worried about it. The doctors found mediastinal and hilar lymphadenopathy and both my Mtb genexpert and afb staining came back negative. I'm experiencing symptoms like weight loss, fever, a persistent cough, and these red spots on my legs. My doctor mentioned that there's no cure for sarcoidosis and I'm just really concerned about what this means for my future. Is there any hope for living a full life after a sarcoidosis diagnosis? What's the life expectancy like for someone in my situation?

Question 3

I've been dealing with a cough for over two weeks, and my throat is super itchy, especially at night. It kicked off with a fever, but that's gone now. Still, my throat feels the same. Any ideas on what might be going on or what I should do next?

Accepted Answer

persistent cough and itchy throat for over two weeks, especially after a fever, may indicate an underlying condition such as a lingering respiratory infection, allergies, acid reflux, or postnasal drip; a proper evaluation and diagnostic tests (e.g., throat swab, chest X-ray) can help determine the cause and guide appropriate treatment.
