A member asked:
Hi dr, my husband 54yrs and suffers with profound fibromyalgia and unfortunately has a lot of swelling all over his body & tongue now, help me please?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Whoa: The swelling is not fibromyalgia. Does he have angioedema? Read about it. If this is a fit, get him to a competent physician. If he has generalized edema, get your family doctor to check out heart, lungs, and liver. Glad he has you.
