MedHelp Member's Question

Will an autoimmune disease cause this?

by TXMomOfFaith, Jul 21, 2008 10:14PM

Swollen lymph nodes? Getting "bugs" all the time like stuffy noses, coughs, tummy troubles?

Yes me too...I think it is because our bodies are so stressed from our immune system being taxed by antibodies......or should i say our immune systems are posessed! LOL

YES.... yes... yes.

Swollen lymph nodes are very common with autoimmune Hashi and hypothyroidism.

I work at a school and when I was still below my TSH number I was ill alot. I picked up every bug the kids have.

You have to get your immune system running again
Listen to our grandmothers. Take your Vit C everyday. 1500 mg to start. and bowel tolerance to 3000 if you can for a while.
