bad behavior linked to enlarged lymph nodes?
by momanddad1, Jul 24, 2008 09:21AM
My four year old has enlarged lymph nodes and is acting completely out of control (screaming, being rude to strangers, saying she hates everyone, etc). The doctor can find nothing wrong with her other than the enlarged lymph nodes (in her neck). He says it is probably some kind of virus. She occasionally complains of ear aches but then will say they do not hurt anymore. Can her behavior be linked to the lymph nodes?

One of the first symptoms of chicken pox is a disagreeable child - it seems like a virus could cause a temporary change in behavior.
How long has she been like this? And is this really a complete change from her normal self?
