I recently had a biopsy of my neck lymph nodes that showed sarcoidosis . Had a pulmonary function test which definitely shows asthma. Been on steriods for one week, noticing improvement in breathing but still wheezing and need to use inhaler three to four times a day. I still have watery eyes, nasal congestion, and lymph nodes are still swollen. I was wondering if there is any questions that I should be asking my doctor. Should I be getting any other tests? Pulmonary doctor doesn t feel the lymph nodes in my lungs should be biopsied at this time.
Hi sixguysandagirl, Acidosis being a chronic disease it cannot be cured in days. A week of steroid treatment cannot cure the symptoms of acidosis. Sometimes it won't be cured with steroid treatment alone needing more powerful immunosuppressive Chat Doctor.
