Do you get swollen nodules? Where do you get them?
Am waiting to see ENT consult re dry mouth/ lumpy salivary glands - apparently there are lymph nodes INSIDE in the parotid (salivary) glands - which surround the junction of jaw with temples. And… read more
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
What side of your neck and does it make your ear ache?Evelyn
I wake each day with pain in my neck, one side. I have replaced my mattress and pillows and feel comfortable yet wake each day with this pain. Is it Fibro?
3 of the 6 discs in my neck are degenerated. Much pain if I move my head too far to the left or right. A neurologist told me not to see a chiropractor. I plump my pillow so that it supports my… read more
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

Yes and also I'll have fever blisters for no apparent reason
Every time I have a flareup my left lymph node under my neck swells...is fibro autoimmune related?
Oh yeah, dump that Dr. ASAP! A lot of doctors will work with you on a cash-only basis if you only don't have insurance and they will work out a discount so you should definitely ask if you don't… read more
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

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
Hello & welcome, Dave
I've noticed every few months my lymph nodes get swollen and very painful. Does anyone else experience this? I wasn't sure if it was a Fibro thing or something else.
Me too!
did the muscle pain in that area get better afterwards?
Where and why do you have the swollen lymph node? Did you have biopsy? Imaging? College of mine had fist size lymph node under jaw, even after biopsy and imaging could not identify any disease, but… read more
