Default Abnormal blood test results

Hi everyone

Yesterday went in to get blood test results.
Found out that my total protein was too high. It was 186mg
The range it should be is:0-150.

-
Also, my ACE cumulative angiotensin converting enzyme was 59 U/L
Should be less than 51.

It states this mild elevation suggests possible Sarcoidosis. If present it would be likely to be relatively inactive or extrathoracic.

What l find really puzzling is my best friend has just been diagnosed with this disease as well. I even said to her a few weeks ago when l developed symptoms of PN, wouldn't it be funny if l had the same as you? It turns out that l may well have.

So l suppose this would suggest this is where my PN is stemming from.
I feel kind of relieved to have found the underlying cause of PN, and therefore a, able to treat .

The question l have is if l treat Sarcoidosis, will it mean my PN symptoms will go away, or are my nerves already damaged?

Often sarcoidosis goes away on its own, l just hope the PN symptoms follow suit.

Not happy l may have Sarcoidosis, but am very, very relieved that l may get to the bottom of this and it's not idiopathic. That the actual cause can be found is a reliefs or me.

I just wonder if there are any kind of supplements that l can take to make the healing of sarcoidosis quicker?

Cheers sue
