  5. 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?
