Once you receive a diagnosis of Sarcoidosis, you have an answer. But that raises more questions. What medications should I take? Will they work? Is it the right medication? What complications could I face? Do I have the right doctor, or is the right doctor not in my local area? In many cases sarcoidosis means you need to travel to get the care you need. Your local doctors may not have enough experience to deal with your case. That was the situation for Royce Robertson. He spent tens of thousands of dollars just getting to and from his care. That's before he paid for traditional medical expenses. In this episode of the FSR Sarc Fighter podcast, Royce talks about raising money to help people offset the cost of travel.

Sarah Bishop has a little extra compared to the rest of us. Even though she endures daily struggles with Sarcoidosis she pushes herself to the limit. In this case the limit is an endurance event called The Goat, which takes place in her native New Zealand. Sarah turned her expedition into a fundraiser for the Foundation for Sarcoidosis Research, and it gained national notoriety and momentum. In this episode of the FSR Sarc Fighter podcast, Sarah describes the grueling training and how sarcoidosis makes everything just that much more difficult.
