Suggest Effective Cure For Sarcoidosis With Sever Abdominal Pain

My daughter is now 35 yrs. old, and has been diagnosed with sarcoidosis, for the last 10. Lately she has been experiencing, ever-more intense episodes of cyclical vomiting syndrome, during which time she will vomit and sort-of convulse, and complain of very intense abdominal pain. When these episodes aren t occurring, shes active, athletic, jumps rope, does yoga etc. I can stand to hear her say I can t believe this is my life. I hate my life. I AM BEGGING YOU FOR HELP. SURELY THERE IS SOMETHING THAT CAN BE DONE. I am so worried, as is the entire family. Reginald Sinkler

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you should get done CT scan of abdomen to rule out abdominal involvement in sarcoidosis.
Sarcoidosis is connective tissue disease involving lungs, mediastinal lymphnode, abdomen etc.
So get done CT Abdomen.
She may need methylprednisolone treatment for 1-2 months.
Methylprednisolone is the only treatment for sarcoidosis.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your daughter. Thanks.
