my 17 y.o. daughter is suffering from fatigue, has a sore throat, and states she is not getting enough sleep. The physician finds swollen lymph nodes; an enlarged spleen; and tonsillitis. The CBC showed an increased WBC and normal RBC. The liver function test showed increased liver enzymes, and a positive heterophil antibody test what is my daughters diagnosis?
Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on the symptoms and investigations, it appears to be infectious mononucleosis. My comments are as follows:1. Sore throat with lymph node enlargement.2. Splenomegaly and liver enzymes elevated.3. Positive astrophile antibody test. Based on above my diagnosis is Infectious mononucleosis. Close followup is necessary for this viral infection by Epstein Barr virus. Any further queries, happy to help again.
