My husband has been dealing with sarcoidosis for about a year and a half now, and he was on methylpred for a year. He's asymptomatic at the moment, but I'm really curious about how we can tell if the disease is still present or if it's gone into remission. Can a chest X-ray reveal if the disease is still there, or would it show enlarged lymph nodes and other markers even when he's in remission? How can I tell if he's recovering early on?

I'm dealing with bronchial asthma and have been using Foracort 400 daily. I'm worried though, are there any potential problems or side effects from using it every day? I'd really appreciate some advice on this.

Foracort 400 is generally safe for managing bronchial asthma if used as prescribed by your doctor. Long-term use may cause side effects like oral thrush, hoarseness, or mild systemic effects, so regular check-ups are essential. Always rinse your mouth after use to minimize side effects.
