YOU NEED TO SEE A LUNG SPECIALIST TO BE TREATED FOR SARCOIDOSIS. YOUR PCP PROBABLY DOESN'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT THE ILLNESS BUT THE LUNG SPECIALIST WILL. THIS ILLNESS CAN BE VERY SERIOUS BUT SOME PEOPLE HAVE IT AND DON'T HAVE MANY SYMPTOMS AT ALL. TELL YOUR PCP THAT YOU INSIST ON HAVING A REFERRAL TO SEE A LUNG SPECIALIST.
