Has your doctor done a skin test for TB? Have you had a chest x-ray to check for lung damage?

Here is some information on Sarcoidosis that I think would be helpful to you: sarcoidosis

I'm also wondering - are you in the United States now?

There is things your doctor can do for it. Ask him about prednisone. I have sarcoid in the lungs. The only way they can tell you for sure is having a biopsy. I had one a year ago on my lungs and it showed sarcoidosis. So far I haven't had it on the skin. Good luck!
