Chronic Fatigue Syndrome - Do You Get Sore Throats/swollen Glands? Or Fatigue Only?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia back in 2007, however my fatigue gets worse every year to the point that it is now my most debilitating symptom, so I always wonder if I also have CFS, but I don't get the symptoms of sore throats or swollen glands. Please tell me your symptoms and if you were diagnosed with or without the sore throat/swollen glands issues. Thank you! God bless. 😊😪💤💤💤

What Do People Take For Nausea? (If They Get It)
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

My nausea isn’t constant but when I do get it, it lasts for days and makes me feel so so unwell, also paired with dizziness/lightheaded. I find taking anti-sickness medication doesn’t help and in fact makes it worse because this side effects make me even more dizzy. Any tips please? :)

Am I Having A Flare Or Do I Need To Go To Doctor?
A MyFibroTeam Member asked a question 💭

This is a question I feel we all often face. How do you know the difference between a flare and actually needing medical attention? I thought my sore throat and arm/hand pain was all due to fibromyalgia. Since I already had a doctors appointment, I thought I would ask him to check it out. Come to find out I have Strep Throat and Tendonitis. How do you decide when its time to go to the doctor?

I often wonder if my chest pain, left arm pain and such is heart related. It’s very distressing not knowing what symptoms to take seriously or not.
