Is indigestion related to sarcoidosis?
Hi I am a 39 year-old female. I was recently diagnosed with sarcoidosis in the lungs, chest and stomach. I have been suffering with severe nausea, belching and indigestion. My doctor seems to think it may be caused by the stomach lymph node. I’ve tried almost every single anti-nausea/anti-reflux/anti-spasm med there is. Nothing works. I’m wondering if these symptoms are a symptom of sarcoidosis or something totally unrelated. I just started prednisone on Saturday. My doctor thinks once the stomach lymph nodes reduces swelling, maybe the indigestion will go away. After the biopsy, I was taking pain meds, and I didn’t have any indigestion. As soon as I stopped, it came back. So maybe the indigestion is caused by the pressure or pain of the swollen lymph nodes. Also, I had an endoscopy and ct scan with barium, and everything GI related came back normal. Gall bladder etc. looks good. In fact, that’s how we stumbled upon the swollen lymph nodes. Anybody experience these symptoms? I feel lik
