I have been diagnosed with Lupus Sle, Raynauds Phenom, chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Epstein Barr Virus for about 7 yrs now.  For the past year I've had problems with swollen lymp nodes, swolling legs/retaining water. Now, I get antibotic because with the swollen lymp nodes it feels like sometimes like Im choking and it goes to my ears.

I had blood work done - it says

I'd like to see tests for thyroid antibodies and FT3 and FT4 tested.

I suspect you may actually be hypothyroid, which would definitely be a contributor / exacerbating your other conditions.
