Sarcoidosis – Symptoms & Causes

Heart Disease

Sarcoidosis would spread to your cardiovascular system and cause some heart issues. The risk can vary in different races, with the highest number of reported cases in Asia and lower figures in Europe and the United States. People with this symptom tend to experience arrhythmia or irregular heartbeats. This affects the transport of blood and oxygen to different parts of the body, thus reducing your normal functions. In some rare cases when your heart is severely affected, a complete heart block or ventricular arrhythmia would occur and lead to serious complications. [4]
