@juneann Here is what Mayo Clinic has to say about sarcoidosis https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/sarcoidosis/symptoms-causes/syc-20350358

As you will read, a complication of this disorder can sometimes be abnormal calcium levels, that can lead kidney stones [and progress to kidney issues and/or kidney failure]. Is this something you are dealing with yourself? Are you under treatment for the sarcoidosis? If so, what medications are you taking?

I was diagnosed with sarcoidosis 3 years ago. I had kidney failure due to Sarcoidosis. I just found out that my Sarcoidosis is active again. Tomorrow I will find out the plan is moving forward.

I haven’t been on any medication for it for a years and a half now.
It scares me because I don’t want to go on prednisone again.
