Sarcoidosis - my first ace level was 98 and now my second ace level is 111. dr thinks sarc. not on meds. could ms, mg, etc. be the cause?

ACE levels: Ace can be elevated in sarcoidosis but it is not specific to this disease. It can be elevated in TB or other granulomatous disease. It is generally normal in ms, mg.

NO: You likely have sarcoid, and should have studies of lungs and liver. Your angiotensin converting enzyme is increasing, and you may benefit from treatment.
