When To Worry About Swollen Lymph Node?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Ever since I have had issues with the autoimmune junk I have had a lymph node in my neck getting swollen and hard. Sometimes the lymph node will go down but then it will get hard again and stick around for a good month or so.

I had a terrible ear infection about a month ago where my ear drum ruptured and the ENT told me that a swollen lymph node can indicate an infection (wherever the lymph node is, then the infection is somewhere higher up). That being said, I have also read that swollen… read more

Swollen Lymph Nodes For Months
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hello,

Has anyone experienced consistently swollen lymph nodes in the neck? I have had two on one side that refuse to go down and it's been months. Seeing an ENT tomorrow and getting anxious. Tonight I'm trying a professional lymphatic massage. I'm starting to wonder if I have CFS as well. Thanks

Swollen Lymph Nodes In Neck For Months
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hello all,

I recently noticed two large lymph nodes in my neck and am wondering if anyone else gets swollen lymph nodes with fibro. One lymph node was measured in an ultra sound at 2.6 cm. It was deemed benign and reactive but it is not going away. It has been 2 months and I am seeing an ENT next week.

I know fibro does not cause inflammation but is it likely to have recurrent infections which may cause such continued lymph node inflammation ?

Thank you all. I look forward to sharing my… read more

A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

Recently diagnosed with fibro. In constant pain in what can only be described as lymph node areas. Moving, bending and stretching seems to resolve the pain but only for a short time. Anyone else had such pain? Is it normal for health anxiety to kick in and think lymphoma etc
