Oh, so now everybody is talking about sarcoidosis, now that Bernie Mac died with complications due to pneumonia. He also had sarcoidosis, but it was in remission. Just a few days ago when I posted my entry about my sarcoidosis, it was a little known disease. Now, because of the press coverage, people are hearing about it for the first time and scrambling to understand. The articles I have read makes sarcoid seem worse than my experience. Perhaps I have a mild case of it. I hope the media spotlight on sarcoid will increase the possibility of research into this disease. Here are some links for more information about sarcoidosis.
