| So-called acute sarcoidosis is the latest stage of sarcoidosis. It develops abruptly over a period of a few weeks and represents 20 to 40% of all cases. These individuals usually have constitutional symptoms such as fewer, fatigue, malaise, anorexia, or weight loss. These symptoms are usually mild, but in approximately 25% of the acute cases the constitutional complaints are extensive. Many patients have respiratory symptoms like a cough, dyspnea, a vague retrosternal chest discomfort and polyarthhritis. |
