The Embarrassment of Over-Exposure

April 15, 2014 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

Ahhhhh. Depression.

Is it better to burn out than to fade away?  For me this question becomes ever more poignant as my experience with Sarcoidosis grows ever more familiar.  From a short term perspective, I have no doubt that my symptoms increase in intensity the more active I am.  The more I do, the worse I feel.  […]

Maybe A Pretty Chart Will Help?

April 14, 2014 by acrockofschmidt Leave a Comment

Edited April 2014 from letter dated March 2011.  Good afternoon, doctors.  I am sending you three this letter and diagram in a last ditch attempt to explain my health issues from my perspective.  I feel that I am failing in properly describing my symptoms to you and I hope this chart will help a bit […]
