Sir, I have been diagnosed with sarcoidosis with erythema nodosum symptom and have been taking omnacortil for last six months and stablised at 7.5 mg a day. This is the third relapse of sarcoidosis in three years and that is my doctor has advised 7.5 mg for another 6 months. Do you suggest to use an air purifier in my bed room to avoid another relapse?
Hi Dear ! I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns would say that an air purifier will help your air in the room to clear from "allergens and other contaminants. Especially CO2. These may irritate your lungs and cause pulmonary problems with inflammation. The result is good to have the air clean and avoid other inflammation. But about if they will help you to avoid totally a new relapse, that is not sure.Because Acidosis is "Your immune system causing the disease (Lymphocytes)" and the cause why your system do that is not clear yet. The relapse of Acidosis may be caused cause of low doses of cortisone this often happens after you stop the medication for a time or when we low the dosage (from acute dosage to maintenance dose 7.5 mg). To avoid that if I were you treating doctor if you have another relays I would consider starting a new Chat Doctor.
