Many people with sarcoidosis don't have type 1 diabetes as well, so it is unlikely that sarcoidosis caused it all alone. Most people who are going to manifest type 1 diabetes are diagnosed in childhood or their teenage years. Occasionally it will not manifest until adulthood.
Sarcoidosis almost always involves the lungs, but it can also affect the skin, eyes, nose, muscles, heart, liver, spleen, bowel, kidney, testes, nerves, lymph nodes, joints, and brain. Granulomas in the lungs can cause narrowing of the airways and inflammation and scarring (fibrosis) of lung tissue.SARCOIDOSIS CAUSES. The cause of sarcoidosis is not known. One theory suggests that it develops when a genetically susceptible person is exposed to specific environmental agents.arcoidosis is a disorder that causes tiny nodules (granulomas) of inflamed tissue to develop in the body's organs. These nodules can join together, forming larger nodules that interfere with normal body functions such as breathing.
