Hashimotos - neck glands up

Hi all, haven't been around for a while.

The glands in my neck have come up, more prominently on the left side. Been up for weeks now and I don't know why. Feels a little lumpy when I swallow sometimes.

Is this a common symptom of hashimotos? Is it a sign of a flare up? Anyone else have the same problem please

Evening. I’m getting this more & more often & even feels like my food is stuck in my throat & making me feel sick. It’s worse lately & been nearly 3 wks now & get white speckled spots on tonsils but then they go!!! I’m just taking over the counter medication at the mo.

Had my Tsh tested 6 wks ago & it was slightly high so they upped my meds. Good luck xxx

Hi

Yes it’s all connected to Hashimoto’s I’m afraid.

I have them often where it feels like my windpipe is restricted or like food is stuck in my throat.

One thing I did notice is when I eliminated dairy from my diet it did help to ease the feeling of food stuck in my throat.

The joys of Hashimoto’s.😡😡😡😡.

can't say I have had this for a long long time. I wonder if it's a sign of a flare up
