hi does anyone get painful swollen glands at the base of there skull.
Hi
When I get fibro symptoms I also get what feels like swollen glands in all sorts of places, but it may be that they are muscular swellings?
It would be advisable to get this checked out with your GP Munchkin to make sure this is ok and to rule our other conditions, illnesses etc. It would also reassure you and ensure you get the right treatment if necessary.
Please let us know how you get on, take carel.

thankyoun for your advice i will go see gp as soon as i can and will let you all know xx
hi munchkin62, i have constant swollen glands on my neck, had them looked at. they said its prob just to do with the fibro, oh joy more problems, its always best to get them looked at xx
I get painful swellings at the base of my skull, not just feeling painful but very painful if touched too. My GP says it is part of the Fibro xxxx
ive just been rubbing back of neck asits been really sore and it feels swollen in places and the top of my spine is very lumpy ? and sore to i know ive got cervical and lumber spondolitis but its never felt like this before ive got an appointment come throughfor a ct scan for some reason (i may have forgotten gp conversation from whenever i had one have a vague memory of seeing gp not long ago ) blooming fibro fog !! anyhow maybe this will show if any abnormalitys.xx
I too keep getting this, i had massage and she told me it was really swollen at base of skull. My whole face is a nightmare with major sinus problems and pain, severe headaches. Didnt know if I should go to GP coz thought they would say it was Fibro again. Seem to blame everything on it, but forget all that when it comes to filling in forms. Let us know how you get on.

Becareful i think we all have lumps that appear due to FIBRO,sometimes though these could be Glandular Fever not saying it likely, but we always blame FIBRO,what if we just sat there and did nothing i mean would we be irresponsible for neglecting ourselves,or on the other hand visit the doctors just for him to say nothing more can be done it,s FIBRO.I think we all want the same answers without feeling a nuisance to the doctor,what do you think?jacksiex
yes your right there hense why i havent been to the dr yet i know i should but i feel like im a nuisance and will just be fobbed of again i took a list in once not long ago as i always forget important things like why im there lol but the dr said oh thats alot of qeustion there were only 3 2 of which were why had i not received appointments from hospital for a scan opps having a blank moment !! anyhow things that were meant to have been done by herself and she admited that i should have received an appoint ment that was awhile ago and still waiting but the point is i was told i should write down any qeustions and then was made to feel really bad for doing so i feel that i just cant do right for doing wrong most of the time so just dont bother i hate the felling of being so flipping dependant on others guilty even xx
my kids get swollen glands on the backs of their necks, at the base of their skulls, whenever they are fighting infections of any sort. I've never noticed it on myself, but then I constantly have a sore "lumpy" neck anyway. could be you're fighting an infection though, if it's not normal for you
