Getting sick with Sarcoidosis and EN

I have been diagnosed with Sarcoidosis and Eyrthema Nodosum.  I have been sick with what i thought was a cold.  It has been going on for about three weeks now.  I can't seem to shake the cough, and the aches and pains.  I have also been extremley tired.  Is this a normal issue with Sarcoidosis and EN???

Sarcoidosis can be a symptom of infection of infection with spirochetes, in particular, those that cause Lyme disease.  You might wish to get tested for that.  You'd be better off skipping the western blot.  Ask your physician to get your tests done by a lab called IGENEX.
