Hello, iv posted a few times about low grade fevers but havnt gotten much of a response. I was wondering if anyone with CFS has or had low grade fevers before diagnosis. I have a low grade fever every couple of days. Doctors think I have Fibro, I'm waiting to be seen by a specialist for a definite diagnosis.

Hi Ocean8, welcome to the forum. While a low grade temperature can be a symptom of CFS, it is also a symptom in Fibro. I do not have this symptom, I have a low body temperature so if I do have a temp it is still below normal body temperatures so I never know for sure. I usually run about 97.1 deg. I hope you find something out at the specialist, when is your appointment? I hope it is soon. Hugs, Denise

Thank you Denise!! Iv been so worried about my temp. I'm supposed to see a new doctor on Thursday but we're getting a big snow storm here in Thursday so I'll probly have to cancel :(
I notice that when my temp rises so do my symptoms of CFS/Fibro, I'm thinking those days are flare-ups?
I will keep reading and posting. Thank you again XXXXXXX

I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, and Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome.

I have some unexplained symptoms for 6 years: low grade fevers and swollen throat and armpit lymph nodes. They cannot be explained by the thousands of dollars of testing I've had or my other 2 conditions. My immune system checks out beautifully, so nobody knows.

I hope you find something out!
