SARCOIDOSIS
Sarcoidosis is a rare condition in which immune cells create granulomas (collections of inflammatory cells) in various tissues of the body. The trigger for this immune reaction can be bacteria, viruses, toxins, dust, or other inflammatory irritants.

Sarcoidosis Info
Because sarcoidosis is a progressive inflammatory disease it is important to monitor for signs and symptoms of disease progression and have awareness of the tissues that can become affected.

Cough and chest pain
Sarcoidosis Monitoring
There are some lab tests and imaging that can be done to monitor the course of the disease. These may include:
Kidney function test
Integrative treatment of sarcoidosis includes natural support to reduce inflammation and breakdown granuloma formation, as well as herbs and nutrients to improve cellular functioning of the remaining healthy organ tissue.
With the initiator of the formation of the granulomas still poorly understood there is a role for assessment and removal of heavy metals and toxins in the treatment of Sarcoidosis as well.
