Could I possibly have Mono?!


Question: Could I possibly have Mono!?
I went to the doctor on monday with a sore throat, headache, and congestion!. I didn't have a temp!. or strep!. The doctor told me it was just allergies!. She gave me Zyrtec!. I have been taking the Zyrtec and the congestion, headache, and sore throat, are still here!. My mother called the doctor today and he said to come in tomorrow if my throat is still bothering me!. He believes that it could possibly be Mono!.

Now I know I will have to have blood work to confirm if I have mono or not, but do you think that it is a possibility!?

Thanks(:Www@Answer-Health@Com

Surprisingly, some children, especially those who are younger than 5, may not have any symptoms at all when they get mono!. Most other children, especially older children and teens, do get classic mono symptoms, which can include:
a sore throat*, which is often described as the worst sore throat the child has ever had
a high fever*
enlarged lymph nodes or glands in the neck*, armpit, or groin
malaise and fatigue* (not feeling well and feeling tired)
anorexia (loss of appetite)
muscle aches
a rash, especially if your child was taking antibiotics, like ampicillin or amoxicillin
a headache
nausea
abdominal pain
(*classic symptoms of mono)
