I've been sick for about 3 weeks now, at first they thought sinus infection, then they thought mono, then they thought strep, then they thought mono again, so anyway, the first Monospot test came back negative so they did a throat culture for strep - Also negative.
I went back to the doctor, and they did a full blood test and confirmed that I do indeed have Mono.
I have some swollen lymph nodes on the right side of my neck from just under my jaw all the way down the right side, to my collarbone. The ones up by my jaw are the most swollen, visibly. The others are much smaller.
I was wondering how long Mono keeps your lymph nodes swollen for, roughly? I have an appointment with an ENT tomorrow to get them checked out, but I just found out it was Mono today... I'm wondering if I should still go to the ENT, since I can't really afford it right now and it's quite a journey to get there, and now I know what I have, I know the probable cause too.
So far they've been swollen about 3 weeks.
