Apologies, for starting poll again - HU glich meant first poll was lost!

I noticed a member mentioned Fibro symptoms & hoping glands were not something to worry about too. I just wanted to explain that the community is for people living with Fibromyalgia & ME (Chronic Fatigue) - talking about renaming ME to SEID

I have the diagnosis of Fibromyalgia due to Glandular Fever (Mono) and recently had periods of my glands swollen and regular sore throats, so wondered if anyone else gets this. Please do not think it is a symptom of Fibro, it is more to start a discussion as to whether it is more common with ME maybe? Or to find out if others with Fibro caused by virus get this too?

Hope this helps clear things up

Best Wishes

Thank you for your reply, it's. Funny you mentioned sore throats cause I do get them and have always wondered why as to I haven't been sick with anything that would cause one. So now I know!

Have a very blessed day

I have Fibromyalgia and chronic Fatigue. I have had a swollen lympth node in my neck for nearly 3 years. Despite telling my doctor, nothing has been done and no explanation to what the cause is. I do get sore throats at times, but mostly a dry throat.

Not so much swollen glands with my ME as slight sore throat,flu type symptoms...almost as if my glands might be about to swell up but don't quite.That said they don't get much of a chance,I am on antibiotics very often as my sinusitis has multiplied threefold since my ME diagnosis.

Hi I have recently been diagnosed with FM and I guess it answers all the times when I have taken to bed with sudden flu like systems. I have also had periods where I had a neck like a Pelican (literally) and had negative tests for glandular fever and thyroid. I also suffer with swelling on my inner elbows and sides of my knees - particularly if I have been busy and am really achey
