So I've been stressing for the past week because I had lymph nodes swell on my neck. This doesnt sound very stressful but I had 4 pop up and 1 of them is the size of a golf ball. I also have been extremely exhausted but other than that have had no symptoms. My friend who is also my family doctor called me in antibiotics but they did nothing for the swelling so I started to freak out. I work for cancer specialists so this does not help my worried as I was convinced that I had Lymphoma. I was not the only one to start coming to this conclusion either. Anyways I already had an appointment yesterday so we did a whole array of bloodwork and started talking about biopsies of my neck and about doing body scans to check for tumors. We all went to lunch and came back and to our surprise the bloodwork showed I had a positive monospot test, plus elevated liver enzymes (which is normal with mono because it messes with your spleen). Now most people would not be excited about this but me and Ginger literally did a dance and screamed in the middle of the hallway of the office. I'm sure people thought we were crazy. I have never been so excited in my life. But then I think how in the hell at 25 yo do I have mono ...The kissing disease...HELLO THATS FOR TEENAGERS!!! Oh well I get the weirdest things. 2years ago I got pertusis which is the whooping cough. Maybe the medical field isnt for me since I get all these off the wall things. So anyways I'm off work the rest of the week to rest and I dont even feel bad.
In other news I want everyone to watch this video and help us make a difference.
