Most individuals don't die from sarcoidosis. In fact, many patients who have it never even exhibit symptoms. However, if someone has pulmonary, cardiac, or neurosarcoidosis, the disease can cause organ damage that leads to future complications. There aren't many definitive studies about the average lifespan of someone with the disease because of its many variations, and the severity of each patient's case will ultimately influence their prognosis.

Treatment is generally effective in treating sarcoidosis, and working closely with your doctor and any specialists you're referred to is crucial to recovery. As it stands, sixty percent of patients fully recover from sarcoidosis within a few years.
