Re: Question about symptom? Help Please?

[Guest guest]

I frequently have tender lymph nodes in my neck and under my

arms, though I have no idea why. Probably some immune system

antics. I do have hypothyroid on top of a bunch of other diagnoses.

Any questions ask, I'm not shy.

Take care of you, you're important to me.

Somebody correct is I'm mistaken but that is commonly found in people with CFS.

At least I know I have that problem. Mine started after I had pnuemonia when I

was 8. The littlest thing like not having had enough sleep or a cold will set

them off. It's gotten worse since the CFS. Lymph nodes in the front and in the

back of my neck are the ones that get inflamed.

I've had the same symptoms, especially in the neck. I think I read

that sore throat is a common symptom with FM and that enlarged nodes

can go along with this.

For me, things are seldom clear. I have GERD and it affects my larynx,

also causing a hoarse voice. I also have hypothyroidism, but since I

take Levoxyl, that should limit its impact.

If you learn more, I'd certainly like to know.
