    Concerned mom
    My daughter was diagnosed with mono a week and half ago. She also has a swollen lymph node on her neck and it first it was just one big knot, but today I noticed that it is going into 2 knots and is starting to bruise up. I am wondering if I should be more concerned about this than I already am. I am a nervous wreck about my baby being this sick. She goes to the dr in the morning but I want some one else's opinion. Please help!!

    Please, please do not start new questions to add additional info.

    Go and answer your own question, to add more info. There is no way for readers to connect the two, these are not blogs and do not work that way.

    I have merged the two questions

    A three year old with mono?

    Sadly I really have no advice. I don't think you need to go to the hospital, but that's your call. She should be fine until she sees the doctor tomorrow, but again, this is a judgement call, and it's really your judgement that matters.

    Remember, I'm not familiar with the US. :)

    In Canada I could just call a number and not have to leave the house. It would be free. :)
