Hello,
A nice forum. i was diagnosed with sarcoidosis in June, 2003. At that time I only had shortness of breath and occasionally cough as complaints. My doctor after a serious of blood tests decided to just monitor my condition for a year and then i was discharged.
However, in December, 2006 I developed pneumonia and it didn't go away
until early February, 2007 and I still have coughing and developed pain in hands and feet. I used over 230 antibiotics for other different medical conditions and the last one was septra. In the meantime, an allergy doctor diagnosed me with severe allergies and I started getting shots as of June, 2007.
On July 2, 2007, I discovered something creamy in my mouth and thought that it was due to 2 faulty crowns I had a year ago. My dentist pulled one of them out and decided to put porcelen crown on the other one. I also visited my primary care doctor. She did basic metabolistic, B12, CBC count and tyroid funtion tests and all turned out to be normal or good. She prescribed myselex for the thrush and added that it is normal in sarco patients.
Although I don't see any creamy white films in my mouth anymore, i still feel
my tongue is stuffy and white and I wonder is there any correlation between oral thrush and sarcoidosis or should I go back to dr and have her order more tests? Thank you.
