I don't know...
My daughters lymph node on the left side of her neck swelled up to softball size. It all started with an incredibly dry, painful sore throat fri.Nite. By sat. Morning her fever was up to 39.8 around 104.
Stayed that way till wednesday night. Dr. Gave her nothing, said it was a virus, after an emergency trip to the hospital wed. Night to get her voltarin when her groin glands started to swell, her fever broke, tested positive for mono on fiday. Told the Dr. Already on monday to do a monospot and culture for strep. Strep came back neg, chest x-ray revealed bronchitis, although that is not overly detectable on film!
These dr's!!!!
She is feeling o.K now, 9 days later after 3 days antibiotics.
I'm just having a hard time understanding such a high, perpetual fever from bronchitis or mono for so many days.
What do you think?
