Mark Simbrowsky is a big-time runner.  He runs marathons.  But Sarcoidosis said, "Not so fast."  Mark suffers from cardiac sarcoidosis.  He went from being the fittest person in the room to a hospital bed, and nobody knew why.  Now after a long journey, he is returning to his old form -- but it hasn't been easy. 

This episode of the Sarc Fighter Podcast is presented by aTyr Pharma.
