Sarc Fighter: Living with Sarcoidosis and other rare diseases
Health & Fitness:Medicine
Kerry Wong of Westchester, New York has an all too familiar story. Years and years of misdiagnosis followed by the ultimate discovery of sarcoidosis. When it was finally diagnosed, it gave her some answers but not much relief.
Note: Kerry had many great fundraisers planned for 2020 that were canceled because of the Coronavirus pandemic -- including a day at Yankee Stadium -- although we discussed that in the interview, I deleted that portion as it was no longer relevant.
