Hi John, I was diagnosed with Saroidosis almost 9yrs ago at the age of 50, since my diagnosis my life has not been the same. I live here in Australia and back then I was told take the prednisone and you will be better in 6 months, I knew my body wasn’t getting better and other systems were developing but because sarcoidosis predominantly affects the lungs but my lungs didn’t have it. For 2 yrs i was seeking 2nd, 3rd and 4 th opinions but they were all respiratory drs so every time I saw one I had breathing tests with them all being perfect but I knew I wasn’t. I finally found a Professor who explained that the sarcoidosis was not in my lungs but all my lymph nodes , which explained that the masses were surrounding my heart and lungs and was pushing on them making it difficult to breathe and exercise. I put on 20 kg in 8 weeks from the high doses of prednisone which also caused erosion of my bones and especially my knees. I’ve had to have 2 total knee replacements. I now have 6 different specialties treating me for all the areas that are affected by the sarc. I’ve been on chemo once a week for 8 yrs with a second version fortnightly. I’m 58 and am being cared for by my 75 yr old husband who is a saint, due to my disabilities. I have chronic pain and due to the chemo line in my chest I almost died about 2 months ago from a massive blood clot that attached to the line and blocked one of the main vessels that drains blood from the brain and basically anything above my ribs. Thankfully I have a hotline to all my drs and they know if I tell them something doesn’t feel right it’s straight to hospital and they all come together to solve what is happening. I’m sorry this is long winded but maybe there are others who are just going along with their GP but still don’t feel right, and I say keep pushing until you get results and proper treatment. In Australia there is no drs who are just sarcoidosis drs so it is very possible you may end up with a team of specialties, I know that my drs have best interests at heart and I praise God that I have them and we don’t use steroids now unless it’s a last resort because it’s not always the best treatment, it might be the easy option. John I hope all is going well for you now and I would like to hear how your treatment helps you. Cheers from Australia 🙏🦋🇦🇺
Hi Barb , Sorry to hear about your Sarcoidisis and how it has effected your life , I too have Sarcoidisis, you mentioned you were on Chemotherapy for some time was it Methotrexate or something else? Hope your keeping well David
Prayers for you Mr. Carlin, like your son's, the Carlin family share an amazing gift of detication for anything you all believe in. Keep that gift it looks great on you. All our love and support to you and your family the Clark family
Prayers are up for you Mr. Carlin. Learned about this from a post your son did for his vlog sharing the video. I pray for healing for you and for continued growing strength.
That's a courageous thing you're doing there: Sharing your weakness so it does not have to be someone else's. Raising awareness is always a worthy cause.
I came here to see your story after being a huge fan of your Sarc Fighter podcast. Keep up the amazing work that you do and from one Scar Fighter to another.... You are not alone my friend.
Nothing but the Best Results for you Mr. Carlin. I’ve been diagnosed since 2011, with that horrible disease of the lungs, now the heart is affected, challenges.... but I’ll continue to do my best. 🙏🏾🙏
I cannot only sympathize with you; I can empathize. Having been diagnosed in 2006 with this awful disease. I can barely work, I can barely breathe. It is also an extremely painful disease. I think it is important for people to understand this disease is so varied it can blind one person, cause another to be a quadriplegic, or have migraines, nerve pain, deafness, insomnia, dementia, short term memory loss, liver, kidney and heart failure. There is not one system of the body it cannot touch. My best wishes and prayers out to you Mr. Carlin....from one sarkie to another.
I know what you mean I too have the same problem I am hard of hearing but lose some more now , it started in my lungs now its every where on my body I hated with passion I ued to run 7 miles now I can't ... Now I am more tired after cleaning the house is no joke... My arms feels like is pulling my upper arm it hurts like crazy if anyone knows please let me know ?
That's so sad to hear you are still suffering from this same situation . Am feeling for you right now, I know of a doctor who can help you get rid of this. He also help me from this same situation , He can also help cure yours permanently
I have darrier rousssy sarcoidosis which is a rare form of it . I'm in pain 24/7 . All doctors think you are looking for is pills and I want is real help. But if your not rich you don't matter in my experience. I've done chemo twice and I just can't afford the treatment anymore. So trust me I understand.
Prayers for you and your family. I now live near Bristol but I'm originally from Puladki. I've watched John Carlin many an evening. So many prayer going up
Praying for you, Mr. Carlin! I follow your sons on CZcams and have met all 3 of them. You must truly be an amazing father to have raised such fine young men. I have Celiac disease and my sister has Lupus, so autoimmune diseases run in our family. I hope you are able to have a complete recovery and get back to running soon!!
That's so sad to hear you are still suffering from this same situation . Am feeling for you right now, I know of a doctor who can help you get rid of this. He also help me from this same situation , He can also help cure yours permanently
I have been dealing with an autoimmune condition which they still have not diagnosed since November of 2017. It’s so exhausting. Thank you for sharing your story you are so fortunate to have good doctors
That's so sad to hear you are still suffering from this same situation . Am feeling for you right now, I know of a doctor who can help you get rid of this. He also help me from this same situation , He can also help cure yours permanently
4 years ago I was diagnosed with SARCOIDOSIS and I have tried everything I could to heal myself, but it was all to no avail, until I saw a post on a health forum about an herbalist preparing herbal medicines to cure everything type of diseases. including SARCOIDOSIS, at first I doubted it was real, but decided to give it a try, when I contacted this herbalist through his email and he prepared me a herbal cure for SARCOIDOSIS and sent it to me via the delivery service of UPS from the company, when I received this herbal cure. , gave me step by step instructions on how to apply it, when I applied it according to the instructions I was totally cured of this deadly disease within 4 months of use, I am now free from SARCOIDOSIS, all thanks to Dr. Joshua Ighalo. You can also contact this great herbalist for help by email: drjoshua.ighalo@gmail.com or contact Dr. through his whats-app: +2349057958723 They also specialize in the treatment of all kinds of diseases, VIRUS HERPES , HEPATITIS B, CANCER, BRAIN DISEASE, INFERTILITY, DIABETES AND MORE.
Thanks for sharing this! I have Neurosurc also, brain & spine. I was paralyzed from the waist down in 2016. Walking 2 years later with a cane & a walker I fight daily. Thanks to Cleveland Clinic also for saving my life 💜 again so blessed you put your story out here to advocate all of us!

First i want to say you will be in my prayers. I have had sarcoid since 2007-8 . when first diagnosed i had it in my T4 and C3 also my left lung (now collapsed w scar tissue but my right lung is ok) i have cirhosis because of methotrexate ,remicade and humira . i camt take prednisone because of the bone side effets . i now have it in my stomach , mouth, every lymphnode spleen enlarged, liver , skin and brain. I try to keep a positive attitude because i feel that is key to this disease. It came when i was at the peak of my career and left me on oxygen and pretty much ended my career . I have good times where im able to work but then the fatigue sets in and for every good day i have 3 bed days. My biggest frustration is there is ZERO MONEY FOR RESEARCH. So i want to TRULY thank you for sharing your health issues every public face slowly brings light to this disease. We need that. Thousands like myself are tired of getting shrugged shoulders from frustrated doctors. Most of us can not afford to travel to specialist which are few in USA for sarcoid. They still don't know how it is contracted or developed within a human body. The majority of meds are prednisone or methotrexate which reek havoc on the body. And you will always be sent to a pulmonologist even if. You have other organs more effected than your lungs because the disease is almost always starting in the lungs. Thank you for giving the public a view not only into your personal health issues but also into a disease that needs to be researched and figured out for all of us who's faces are just not recognized enough to make a difference. #sarcoidneedsresearch
I hope you continue to improve. I was diagnosed with sarcoidosis 8years ago in my liver. It's progress to cirrhosis and now it looks as though I will need to have a liver transplant. This disease is horrendous it slowly kills you.
i have sarcoidosis too, it is a huge struggle! i also have Meniere's disease (which is also an autoimmune disease). thanks for sharing! hope your are doing better!
Hey how are u feeling now. My brother has sarcoid as well as tb. He might have menires disease too. I know its 3. He is 40 years old and seems like he just about lost hope. Does it get better.
I was given prednisone in the military for lung or feet issues. Then 25 years later after being diagnosed with PTSD and Factor V Leiden, I got diagnosed with sarcoidosis. I did not get a lymph removed even tho I had hilar lymphanopathy. I got doxycyline, flucanozole and started taking good vitamins individually and I got better.
I have sarc, and also the balled up socks, so I know what you mean. My sarc flared up BECAUSE of chemo. (Breast cancer). Gabepenton helps my numbness a lot. Btw, a long round of prednisone helped my sarc lung situation, and made me feel 100% better, but when I came off of prednisone, pain and numbness came back. Hope all goes well for you.
@@keisharaye3304 That's so sad to hear you are still suffering from this same situation . Am feeling for you right now, I know of a doctor who can help you get rid of this. He also help me from this same situation , He can also help cure yours permanently
@@andreacoleman3622 it helped for a little while.. Remember there is no cure for sarc, so there’s a chance it’ll flare up again. I’m currently back on long term prednisone again. All prednisone does is knock out the inflammation for the time you’re on it, hopefully thereby breaking the circle of the “inflammation habit” the body has made.
Mine was found after having Covid..difficulty breathing..then an mri showed granulomas on my liver and spleen ..still being tested..this will be my my 8 th diagnosis with an autoimmune disease..
I was diagnosed with it in my lungs in 2003 and sleeping with oxygen since 2010. My biggest complaint is difficulty breathing. I have discovered noticeable improvement eating a very low - no carb diet. Please try it for yourself and tell your doctor and social media your results.
This is a great piece. I’ve had Sarcoidosis for 15 years now. Not too many people are appreciative of the systems and treatment Sarcoid patients go through. Thank you, John and your team for presenting this. God bless
hi sir, i hope you are fine, from your dp it seems you are part of your contries armed forced. I am a fit 23-year indian male and i too suffer from sarcoidosis but no sympoms at all( got detected during my navy medicals). Could you pls share your experience of sarcoidosis in a physically demanding job, did it affect your work. Thankyou
I was diagnosed with sarc back in 2003. woke up one morning feeling like I had been run over by a semi-truck it took over a year to get diagnosed and only after they did a CT scan for paraneoplastic syndrome that they found I had sarc. the pain turned out to be sarcoidosis associated small-fiber polyneuropathy Never was treated for the sarc because I had gone into remission on my own. but the small fiber neuropathy pain sleep apnea and insomnia have remained.
well I seem to have it throughout my whole body. started with pain in my spine for years and couldn't get any answers for over 9 yrs. now these granular lumps are throughout all my tissues :((
I'm surprised he's functioning at the level he demonstrates in this report. As a sarcoidosis patient myself, ( lungs, lymph nodes ) I find it difficult to get through a day without fatigue kicking in.
That's so sad to hear you are still suffering from this same situation . Am feeling for you right now, I know of a doctor who can help you get rid of this. He also help me from this same situation , He can also help cure yours permanently
Im sorry to read this.im having tests,& it was on my hospital notes,i,ve been reading up on it,& i have all the symptoms,i havent actually been diagnosed,but im not stupid,& know the symptoms,i know i have it.im in shock & so scared.i have constant chest pain,headache,heart flutters & many other symptoms.i hope u are ok.its a lonely place,im wishing u the best health,God Bless You,take care x
Mate i feel sorry for you i was diagnosed 10 years ago since then my life has been hell ,i have had complete renal failure, its in my liver my lungs my eyes that stinking prednisone is hell ,i know that if anyone thats got it there life is f....d
I am battling with Sarcoidosis I hate every minute !!! It took over everything of my body ... I used to.run over 7 miles now I can't It started in my lungs then it move every where in my body ... I can not take steriods it hurt my stomach lining and my weight... I only using cancer medicine only thing that keep me alive stage 4 ... If I clean the house its make me very very tired. If I do my excercise I try to get a least one hour if I can...I really hate it cause it overtake my body...
@@marydobney6040 That's so sad to hear you are still suffering from this same situation . Am feeling for you right now, I know of a doctor who can help you get rid of this. He also help me from this same situation , He can also help cure yours permanently
@@marydobney6040 yes pain and fatigue are all symptoms of sarcoidosis. There are treatments and don't listen to the other poster who said you can be cured. There is no cure but can be managed better
I have scardios in my chest big as football it attacks me I have bad days and good days I have skin rashes not taking any thing Dr wants to put me on Humira the shots
This is the worse disease ever! I wouldn’t worry sh this on anyone. I found this looking for new symptoms with my hands. I have been fighting this disease since my youngest daughter was born. She will be 32 this year. It’s not easy with other health issues that came after this diagnosis. Poor health insurance makes it even worse.
Pride, arrogance, full of yourself, no pity for folks like this, I'm in control ,no sir god is .I can do this till I'm eighty years old, no you can't sir, you got ahead of yourself and forgot god giveth and taketh away in a moments notice, that's a lesson in life don't take anything for granted including your health , karma don't care who you are what walk of life you come from how much money you got ect, it just strikes especially the non believers lovers of themselves!!!
Yes, it is a inflammatory disease. Cluster of granulomas attack different organs which cause scarring. I had complete heart block caused by it. It is now in my lungs. Eating whole plant based and no sugar has helped me. There is a sarcoid diet to follow.
Sarcoidosis awareness month is in April in Australia. This disease is affecting more people by the day, but we need drs and specialists to understand and learn about this disease so they can help their patients sooner. So many times I was told it affects the lungs but most people don’t know they have it, some drs explained it as if they read it from the internet word for word. Sarcoidosis is also known as the Snowflake ❄️ disease as no 2 cases are the same.🙏🫶🦋🇦🇺

well I seem to have it throughout my whole body. started with pain in my spine for years and couldn't get any answers for over 9 yrs. now these granular lumps are throughout all my tissues :((
I hope you are feeling better and wish you a speedy recovery 🙏🏼
How are you feeling now?
Wow! I went though the same symptoms of Neuro-Sarcoidosis.. it’s a life changing disease.🙏😩
I'm surprised he's functioning at the level he demonstrates in this report. As a sarcoidosis patient myself, ( lungs, lymph nodes ) I find it difficult to get through a day without fatigue kicking in.
I just was diagnosed with this last friday 7 days after my 44 birthday
That's so sad to hear you are still suffering from this same situation . Am feeling for you right now, I know of a doctor who can help you get rid of this. He also help me from this same situation , He can also help cure yours permanently

This is the worse disease ever! I wouldn’t worry sh this on anyone. I found this looking for new symptoms with my hands. I have been fighting this disease since my youngest daughter was born. She will be 32 this year.
It’s not easy with other health issues that came after this diagnosis. Poor health insurance makes it even worse.
Pride, arrogance, full of yourself, no pity for folks like this, I'm in control ,no sir god is .I can do this till I'm eighty years old, no you can't sir, you got ahead of yourself and forgot god giveth and taketh away in a moments notice, that's a lesson in life don't take anything for granted including your health , karma don't care who you are what walk of life you come from how much money you got ect, it just strikes especially the non believers lovers of themselves!!!
It's not an autoimmune disease.....
Yes, it is a inflammatory disease. Cluster of granulomas attack different organs which cause scarring. I had complete heart block caused by it. It is now in my lungs. Eating whole plant based and no sugar has helped me. There is a sarcoid diet to follow.
Sarcoidosis awareness month is in April in Australia. This disease is affecting more people by the day, but we need drs and specialists to understand and learn about this disease so they can help their patients sooner. So many times I was told it affects the lungs but most people don’t know they have it, some drs explained it as if they read it from the internet word for word. Sarcoidosis is also known as the Snowflake ❄️ disease as no 2 cases are the same.🙏🫶🦋🇦🇺
