Question

My husband has been dealing with sarcoidosis for about a year and a half now, and he was on methylpred for a year. He's asymptomatic at the moment, but I'm really curious about how we can tell if the disease is still present or if it's gone into remission. Can a chest X-ray reveal if the disease is still there, or would it show enlarged lymph nodes and other markers even when he's in remission? How can I tell if he's recovering early on?

Question

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been having fever, weakness, and a cough, and we're concerned because his CRP levels are pretty high at 48 mg, and his hemoglobin is really low, just 5.4 mg. The local doctor mentioned it's a chest infection and recommended antibiotics along with glucose. I'm not sure how serious this might be or if there might be other treatment options we should consider. Can you help us understand what might be going on and what steps we should take next?

Question

I'm really concerned about my mom. She's been coughing for about 45 months now. We've seen both general and ENT doctors, and they've done a chest, nose, and throat X-ray, but everything looked normal. The doctors just keep prescribing antibiotics and allergy meds. They help for a bit while she's on them, but as soon as she stops, the coughing starts up again. What else can we do or look into to figure out what's going on?
