So...I presume none of you have found relief from these symptoms? For rose of you diagnosed with fibromyalgia, I take Lyrics. It works for the daily aches and pains that are part of this chronic disease. Not sure why a doctor would diagnose swelling to fibromyalgia...
I'm here reading, because I woke up this morning with 10 extra pounds on my body. All of which appear as fluid making me a viable candidate for Pillsbury doughboy commercial. After reading all I can regarding the symptoms...I am going to go to ER to have my heart checked out.

If you're still dealing with this issue or perhaps revived some type answers or diagnosis, I'd be very interested to hear how things turned out for you. I suffer from almost the exact same symptoms as yourself and was really drawn to your mention of the elevated white blood cells. I am carrying around at least 30 pounds of fluid and it "pits" as well. I've been checked for usual suspect (heart, liver, kidney, protein) but all normal so far. My WBC counts are always between 13K and 15K, which, although not astronomically high, are definitely not a normal finding, especially on multiple blood tests. My life has most definitely been turned upside down by this syndrome/medical issue. The worst part, though, is not knowing the cause. Prior to this disorder, I was actually quite thin and very healthy as far as I could tell

I, too, get all over swelling, was told it was, then wasn't lupus and have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia but swelling is a separate symptom- not part of fibro. I've been dealing with this for 30 years and here are some things I have found helpful: ice on the abdomen reduces inflamation almost everywhere, ice on the sternum is most beneficial for breathing problems, reducing gluten in my diet and increasing gluten free grains helps, avocados reduce the pain from the inflammation and eating a whole cucumber in one day removes water from my body. I can't take "water pills" because they drop my blood pressure too much. After 30 years of testing, they still don't know what is wrong or how to help me or who to refer me to. Good luck.

I have the same thing along with shortness of breath when moving about or laying down, have to sleep with head of bed elevated! After 5 months of repeated flare-ups, in and out of hospital I was finally diagnosed with CHF(Congested heart failure) and had to have 2 stents put in my heart. I improved briefly but as the doctors tell me there is no cure and the flare-ups continue!

Ok, so I found myself on this site because my sister who is normally healthy is having this swelling, aching etc everyone is talking about I am looking for answers. I am also a Plexus ambassador and all of this is sounding like something I think our products can help with. Have you all googled candida yeast overgrowth? I just started learning about what this was about 8 months ago and I have seen so many testimonies that our products are helping people with. I can't help but let you all know about this. I am going to get my sister started on some products and will update, but if any of you are interested in learning more. Do some reasearch yourselves on candida.
