I don't understand

by Ezra30, Feb 05, 2008 03:18PM
Okay, I have a question about mono and Lymphoma.  I have been dealing with all of the symptoms of Mono and have had two mono tests come back positive and my blood work is indicative of mono.  But it has been 10 days and I just can't stop having a slight fever after I have tried to be a little active during the day.  I read a blog that said that mono tests can be false positives and can actually be hiding Lymphoma.  I don't know what to do.   Do I just let it ride for a awhile?  I have extreme health anxiety and I don't know what to do.  Help. Should I push for some other testing?

Hello-I know what you are going through.  My 8 year old daughter tested positive for mono in Sept of 07.  Sunday she complained of her neck and throat hurting so I took her to the doc expecting him to say it's the mono again.  Her lymph nodes above her left collarbone were enlarged and he's sending her for bloodwork.  I'm praying it's just the mono coming back but I have to be realistic too.  I'm so scared that it's something serious.  I hate waiting on the docs to run tests...they take forever!  I know I don't have any suggestions...but I wanted you to know I know exactly what you are going through and you are in my prayers!
