Considering the steroid dependency of the disease and the shortstature of the patient, he was commenced on infliximab 5 mg/kg administered intravenously at 0, 2 and 6 weeks and then every 8 weeks.[saudijgastro.com]
The second case was a 9-year-old Sudanese boy who manifested with vomiting, epigastric pain, and weight loss. On upper endoscopy, both cases demonstrated severe erosive nodular gastric mucosa.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Other symptoms are nausea, vomiting, bloating, and early satiety.[elsevier.es]
Michele initially had lots of gastric and epigastric burning pain; also lots of nausea (associated w/ dizziness, cold sweats). the pain was resolved after i had a course of biaxin, nausea is controlled by large doses of neurontin. probably all depends[inspire.com]

Throughout the 4-year follow up, the course of the disease was punctuated by several relapses on tapering of corticosteroids and later development of vitamin B 12 deficiency anemia: hemoglobin 10.6 gm/dL, macrocytosis (MCV 102, normal 80-91 fL), hyperchromasia[saudijgastro.com]
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) was elevated at 77 U/L, and rapid plasma reagin and Tropherymawhipplei testing were negative. Figure 2. EGD showing moderately erythematous mucosa at the pylorus.[acgcasereports.gi.org]
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) was elevated at 77 U/L, and rapid plasma reagin and Tropherymawhipplei testing were negative.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Symptoms of malabsorption rapidly abated with corticosteroid treatment given for severe pulmonary disease. Gastrointestinal sarcoidosis was clearly established, although coincident celiac sprue could not be excluded.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The patient's course was favorable after treatment with prednisone and chlorambucil. Disseminated gastrointestinal sarcoidosis may be a previously unidentified cause of protein-losing enteropathy.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

TREATMENT AND PROGNOSIS The prognosis of sarcoidosis is good in most patients. The majority of patients with acute disease recover completely. Those patients who do have residual damage of affected organs usually have only minimal organ dysfunction.[meddean.luc.edu]
Prognosis and Patient Counseling. Generally, a good prognosis. Less than 5% of patients die of sarcoidosis, with neurosarcoidosis and cardiac sarcoidosis being the main causes of death.[cancertherapyadvisor.com]
The etiology of pneumatosis cystoides intestinalis in this case was likely multifactorial and involved both effects of the corticosteroids as well as the advanced nature of the gastrointestinal sarcoidosis.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

After I had thoroughly researched the mechanisms of action of LDN, I began prescribing it to patients who had inflammation as part of the pathophysiology of their conditions (Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, post-infectious IBS) and I saw good responses[ldnscience.org]
