Hi ! Dr. Nicolson hinted in an e-mail to me that he may be back next week to answer additional questions in the fibro / CFS forum. He may just pop on in.... or he will set up a time & date.
If you would like, you can post your question in his thread (he's aware of these questions and I think was planning on coming back to answer them):

Please continue to check the thread for a response. Also.... if he lets me know a time and date when he's planning on visiting us again... I will post again in this forum.
Any idea if having thyroid and salivary gland issues related to one autoimmune disorder?
I had hyperthyroidism/graves disease and had to have the entire thyroid removed back in 1994. Now last week was diagnosed with Eagle Syndrome and sialadenitis, both different issues. I did have surgery to have the submandibular gland removed along with two lymph nodes and also a calcified ligament that was discovered during surgery. Can i assume this is all in realtion to autoimmune disorder that no one seems to be able to put two and two together to figure me out?
