THANK you very much for Lisa Salmon’s article on sarcoidosis (The Press, April 20).
I have had this disease since the early 1970s and personally only know of one other person that has been diagnosed.
The article gave me so much information.
I also got in touch with the SILA helpline which again had valuable info.
I have not had any hospital appointments since the early 1980s as I was only told I “had a patch on my lung but it wasn’t TB”.
My constant cough for the past 40 years seemed to bother other people more than me.
