More details from petition creator

Sarcoidosis symptoms are frequently ignored or misdiagnosed as cancer - even unnecessary organ removal. Symptoms depend on which organs are affected but usually include tiredness, fever & fatigue, feel extremely tired physically, mentally or emotionally.

Most common organs affected are Lungs with a cough & breathlessness. Heart can become enlarged & weak. This leads to cardiomyopathy. In the nervous system it can mean weakness, numbness, pins & needles. Brain & meninges can be affected causing headaches, numb skin & weak muscles. Can raise calcium levels in blood can lead to kidney stones. Liver & spleen may become enlarged.

Large tender lumps on shins (erythema nodosum). Small nodules or papules on skin or raised rash (lupus pernio) affects your nose & cheeks. Lymph glands become swollen. Can make eyes red, dry, painful & very sensitive to light. You can get pain in any joint - frequently knees & ankles, often associated with erythema nodosum.
