I have a super painful sore throat that comes and goes. Only on one side when i swallow. Feels similar to strep (like knives cutting when i swallow) strep test is always negative. Just wondering if anyone else experiences this.
I had mono at 16 and had horrible reoccuring symptoms including severe sore throat for years. I got my tonsils out in my mid 20s and it helped. Researchers are now saying that fibro may be caused from the Epstein Barr virus which is what causes mono. Look up the medical medium on fb and read the doctors info about this. Even if you were never diagnosed with mono, you still may have had it. Many people do not get diagnosed because they think it is just a common cold or virus. Very interesting to read.
See your doctor to check it.
I started doing dry brushing which is for the lymphatic system! I have been feeling better plus using magnesium spray! That lymph node pain has been better. They took all my right nodes under my right arm cause of breast cancer so I think my left side is overloaded! Hopefully that will help me!! Soft hugs to you!
I read somewhere that sore throats can be a common fibromyalgia symptom. @A MyFibroTeam Member I agree and if you can reverse the infection with garlic or herbal remedies etc. That seems worth a try, or getting a second opinion. πΉβ€πΉ
Yes I have that and had a CT scan and it was a enlarged lymph node. Very painful. They want me to see a surgeon but afraid of vocal chords. As I sing!! Always between a rock and a hard place!!! My Hydrocodone donβt even take it away! Have Fibro and CFS! Diabetes and Fatty Liver! So upset about it all!!! Iβm 68 but a young 68. My mind is 50!!! I want to have fun but we knows where that goes!!!!
