Episode 146 | A solid dose of perspective and are sarcoidosis patients more likely to get kidney stones?

Sarc Fighter: Living with Sarcoidosis and other rare diseases

About

In this episode of the FSR Sarc Fighter Podcast, it's time to think.  Borrowing some thoughts from a man who faced a possibly fatal brain condition, I look at how similar his case is to our own -- bearing in mind that he expresses his case so much better than most people can or could.  Also, Sarcoidosis News is out with a study showing that Black Women are more likely to develop kidney stones than other groups.
