Hi Sheri
I do, but I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (overlapped with Fibromyalgia) and that causes me to run fevers. Do you think maybe the fevers could be from UTI's?
Love ya,
JessMommy to 2 crazy, wonderful kids and wife to the most amazing man in the world!

I've been known to run a low-grade fever during flares too. I have read that it can be a response to pain and especially, inflammation in the body.

So the fever is most likely from the pain and inflammation I am guessing from all these old threads, mine has lasted over a year and a half, been to evry doctor and slew of tests, inflammation only thing showing up.
. have tryed several antiimmflammatories to no avail except bextra, and well we know where that is now. Everyother one made me sick, and was not helping anyway, tyelnol helps but not for long, about have to 4 to see a difference. Ok still venting

Sherry I also run low grade fevers everyday. As far as the anitinflammatory thing goes have you tried Ultram. It is a non-narcotic pain med. It attachs to the brain receptors like narcotics meds do. It also has a mild anti-inflammatory in it. It works really good for me.God grant me the serinity to withstand the days ahead!!!

Patricia, yes I have tryed the ultram, but because I am on Zoloft as well, the ultram was causing what they call a seritonin syndrome, I was feelign real nasuea all the time terribel headaches, and finally the pharmacist told me the combo was what most likely causing it, and when I weaned off the ultram the headaches and naseau and dizziness went away, so I guess as long as I am on Zoloft I or any SSRI I cannot take the ultram. Bextra was great thought, but that is off the market, so its tylenol for now. Thanks for repling though.....................take care...Sheryl
