What Do You Suggest For Sarcoidosis?

Hi my name is chris jefferson. I need to find a doctor who will prescribe the meds I need. I was recently under hospice care but I was discharged because I have to do an IVIG once a month. I have Sarcoidosis, as well as cvid,and apato pulmonary syndrome. The reason for the discharge was that hospice considers my IVIG treatment a life preserving treatment and that is a conflict with their 6 months to live policy. so I can either be in pain and get thr ivig treatment or get back on with hospice and be off the transplant list. I am in need of a new lung and or liver. I was diagnosed with the sarcoid at age 15. I am now 32, off of hospice and most doctors in my city do not want to deal with Medicaid patients. I would greatly appreciate any feedback. sincerely, Christopher Jefferson
