My docs suggested not taking medication for sarcoidosis , because it had side effects outweighing benefits. I know it may not sound empathetic where you stand now, but learn to manage pain using more holistic ways, keep busy with living positively and productively. I have amassed 5 autoimmune diseases now, raised two kids and worked full time since being diagnosed 40years ago. It wasn’t ever easy but the alternative was never an option, so just do it! I was blessed with supportive docs, friends and family. I’ve never regretted doing any of it.
