Just wondering if anyone suffers with swollen glands which they believe are related to fibromyalgia?

Thanks!

I do have issues with my glands when my body is in flare, or a bad day! I notice that my groin, neck and armpits are tender and ache! The only thing I can think of, is that our glands are fighting pain or infection??🤔 Worth mentioning to your gp at your next visit! 💖

Hi there,

Yes, both myself and sister suffer from time to time with swollen glands.

It took a long time to come to the conclusion it was related to fibro.

Just something else for the never ending list.

All the best

Yes I have problems with them also and my armpits.

I had a scan on my neck last year, she said there was nothing to worry about but confirmed that they were enlarged, one more so than the other (which I already knew), they get really achy/sore and they add to my swallowing problems sometimes.

Does anyone else have slightly swollen sore to the touch glands.

I have noticed that this happens when I have a fibro flare up.
