My student was diagnosed with mono by monospot . cbc was normal except for reduced platelets . only symptoms are enlarged lymph nodes and itchiness . lymph nodes got smaller itciness gone. should i take her to ent to rule out lymphoma? worried crazy!

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Can U,yes, should U: I encourage my parents to seek out any information to feel comfortable about things. In truth, common things (mono) are common while uncommon things (lymphoma) are not.You also expect to see the nodes shrink in mono over time but not in untreated lymphoma.What you list is not worrisome.Your other experiences in life often push you to worry more, if so, the extra effort/visits can be worth it
