Please join us on Saturday, April 10, from 11AM-12PM CST(12-1PM EST, 10-11AM MT, 9-10 AM PST). When sarcoidosis causes scaring in the lungs, it may be referred to as Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD). While some with sarcoidosis will have scaring and related ILD, others will not. This disease is difficult to pin down in so many ways, understanding if you have ILD as a result of sarcoidosis is just one of them. Join FSR Patient Advocate and Navigator, Cheryl Bradford, as she shares her experience with sarcoidosis related ILD and how she embraces life after the diagnosis. This session will discuss:
- What are the symptoms of ILD
- How do you find out you have ILD
- ILD symptom management
