FM: sarcoidosis

I decided to follow a resident who I hadn't previously followed. He was somewhat younger and more inexperienced and as such I could speak more and explain things to patients. Got to see some cooler stuff.

Sarcoidosis
The female in the room was apparently afflicted with something. She was more than willing to talk about about it. And even more than that she allowed me to take pictures, which are below. She said that everything in her life is affected by it, but she is not on any medications. She doesn't have any long term problems as far as lung issues. It's just the skin that seems to be affected. She came for a simple check up, and she's in good health minus sarcoid.
