Sarcoidosis again, still,always?

I was diagnosed by open lung bx in 2001, I suffered ans was treated with plaquenil and methotrexate, after a while on steroids. seemed to get better, then the last year treated with a lot of respiratory problems, pneumonia and different types of flu. I am worried I feel worse than before, my labs show  another onset after all this time. But also with raised lft's, and indicators do heart issues, my question is does cellcept work as well? does morbidity go up the second time around? Is there something better to use? More chest pain this time. thanks for your input!

I just started cellcept yesterday, so having fears and questions, but my sarcoid has progressed into the heart and liver so hopefully yes it will slow it down, but ask your sarcoid doc tons of questions cause after reading all the what ifs I'm rather worried about this drug
