hi! I have a mass in/on my submandibular salivary gland, determined from an ultrasound. I see a head/neck specialist this week.
anyone else? and has anyone developed sjogrens or another autoimmune from any kind of toxic exposure? I have had fibromyalgia for several years that I am treating with Cymbalta.. thanks! Nancy

Hello @nanke99 That must be scary to have a mass in your salivary gland. I’m so glad you’re going to have an ultrasound and will get some more info. You also mentioned toxic exposure and autoimmune disease. Are you concerned that you’ve had an exposure? Be sure to ask the head/neck specialist.
After your US, will you let us know what you learned?

Hi @nanke99 Have you learned any more about the submandibular salivary gland? If you don’t mind saying, what did the head/neck specialist say? Becky
