Pulmonary Sarcoidosis: How are you dealing with it?

I am a 51 yo widow whose husband died of a rare muscle disease 3 years ago. After his death, I was dx with Sarcoidosis. I have so much pain and breathing problems. The ER said the CT Scan revealed that it is progressing. When I returned to my PCP, he asked me if all my symptoms were in my head because I am also Bipolar. It has been rough. It is hard supporting myself. I am on disability, but I work part-time to pay for medical bills and medicines. This is wearing me down. Nobody knows what it's like, not even my family.
All Alone,
Karen
