My 19 year old daughter who is a Freshman in college has not felt well for 2 weeks. She has had nausea, fatigue, and swollen lymph nodes in her throat. Mono finger prick test have been negative twice and she will go for lab work to test for Mono on Monday. Today her shins were very achy....she feels as if something different happens each day but the overall tiredness and nausea are always present. She was prescribe Prednisone for the lymph nodes. My concern that there is something else underlying causing her fatigue. She has recently (in the last 2 months) converted to being a vegetarian as well but takes a multivitamin and an iron tablet every-other day. She has a history of protein in her urine and has been evaluated by a Nephrologist who thought maybe she has scar tissue in her kidneys from strep infections when younger. I plan to have a full work-up done on her once she returns home next week but thought I would put it out to experts to see what it might be. Thank you so much! A worried mom...Tracy
