I suspect my son has mono. Two weeks ago he had a sore throat and since Friday he has been falling asleep everywhere. What should I do?
48-year-old woman
He has a headache and feels dizzy and numb (he has never taken a nap, he is more of a hyperactive type). He is 14 years old and in the middle of a growth and hormonal spurt. I guess I don't have much choice but to consult his pediatrician to get a requisition for a blood test? Thank you!

Hello Ma'am,
You are right: a doctor will need to look into her situation to see if her symptoms are related to mononucleosis.
Don't hesitate to come back to me if you have any questions about a diagnosed problem or medication!"
