Have Difficulty With Finger Movements, Jerks, Grip Is Poor. Have Sarcoidosis. What To Do?

Hello Dr Grief,
I wonder if you can help me, I was diagnosed with sarcoidosis in 2008 and had to take early retirement after 37years of nursing/midwifery. I find the information aimed at the general public is not in-depth enough, and the medical papers aim too far above me. I am having new symptoms and I don't know if it if just the sarcoid, and if so is there any treatment? I get so fed up going to four differant consultants who will initiate a barage of tests, and then tell me that there is not realy much that can be done, and offer me prednisolon. I am now having difficulty with fine finger movement,fingers jerk and type extra keys when I am typing. My grip is poor and I have involantry jerking x like Parkinsons, I will lift a cup and my wrist will jerk and and I will have tossed the contents, usaly over my self; I have given my self som nasty scalds on my hand, wrist and abdomen. I am also loosing my memory and I don't remember events, very disturbing is the fact I don't remembet my grand-daughter when she was ababy she is now five. I have just lost two hours as I seem to fall asleep at the computer? I wonder if there is some form of epilepsy going on?
That's probably enough to be going on with
Kind regargs,

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The symptoms that you have are likely to be due to a nerve root involvement or a weakness caused by neural deficit. Do consult a neurologist for proper diagnosis.
