swollen spots/tender spots

[Guest guest]

Ok so my question of the day.

I have had for as long as I remember, tender spots, just all the time,

in specific places on my body. However, the last few weeks, my left

armpit has felt.. Not swollen precisely but.. Hard and enlarged and

extremely tender. Not quite like a swollen lymph node (spelling? its

late and a long day) but similar. At any rate, was wondering if anyone

has had anything like this. I am not sick, although i have been

flaring. and doing my best to ignore it, and keep on with life, and

just keep it to a minimum. (baths, stretching, and taking motrin to

keep the pain minimal)..

I considered seeing my PCM and asking about it, but if its just a

swollen lymph node i dont want to bother him with it, since it is just

going to go away, or even if its just something that happens with

fibro. So I thought I would check here to see if anyone has had

anything similar before.

Thanks everyone!
