31 Year Old Male - Alopecia, skin lesions to Hashimoto's

Nov 23, 2016


Hi there,

I believe within the next few weeks I will be diagnosed with Sarcoidosis. I have Alopecia, Hashimoto's and skin lesions everywhere, from my arms to my legs to my head and face, so unfortunately I know this seems to be a bit more extensive. On top of this, I have had the shortness in breath and I am growing a bit more concerned while waiting for my Dermatology appointment.

I have gone through the classic steps of trying all the anti-bacterial/fungal medications and now they are finally digging deeper. After seeing this and seeing pictures of this... I know for sure this is it. Now it is just timing....

Could I ask, I know i will be put on some form of medication for treating this, I am going to be in College starting Jan 8. and I am concerned the drugs will affect my ability with schooling? - Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

I am also concerned because I am 31 with two kids, and from what I am reading it is really scaring me.

I wanted to reach out for piece of mind, and maybe any info that is to hard to find.

Thank you everyone for your time!
