Re: can you have sarcoidosis with a normal ace test
Definitely you can. ACE is not a very sensitive test for sarcoidosis, and a significant number of individuals can have it be negative even though they have the disease.

Thank you for your reply. I have been very confused about this test since many people think that it is the absolute and apparently it is not.
