Swollen lymph nodes and other symptoms...

Posted , 5 users are following.

Ive had symptoms for months. Persistent fatigue, swollen glands and lymph nodes, dizziness every time I stand and night sweats. I went to my doctor in October and had blood done. It came back "normal" she said. I had lymph node ultra sounds and a chest xray a month ago and they came back normal other than swollen lymph nodes (which I already knew I had). She diagnosed me with mono from the ultrasound? But the symptoms have persisted. I had a followup ultrasound last week and the lymph nodes were still swollen. What could it be? Because I do not believe that it was/still is mono. 

I'm not sure what would be relevant medical history to this case but cancer runs in my family. My mother and maternal grandmother have had breast cancer. My maternal grandfather died from pancreatic cancer that spread. My paternal grandfather has leukemia currently and has had since 2012.
