“Swelling nodes, what is it?”
As a kid I injured my right chest falling on a slippery log. My left hip was hurt on a carnival ride, and my chin and neck area I was punched. I had a non malignant tumor removed along with the saliva gland and some odd looking nodes. The swelling and fevers are on and off. I have fibromyalgia and sjogrens syndromes most all my life. Had a rheumatologist until moving in 2016. Nothing was done for the swelling. I went to an ENT to diagnose TMJ. Had that fixed non surgically. I thought it was all tied into the Sjogrens. Was told by my current doctor that it is not. I'll be seeing a rheumatologist as soon as possible to get confirmed diagnoses. My left wrist swells sometimes also. It seems like every little thing I did swells. my feet and ankles also swell. Any answers?
