We discussed the differential diagnosis. She was thinking it might be more related to allergies, though I am suspicious there might be something more viral going on. I will send her strep test for a culture and I will review those results with her when they become available. We also drew a CBC with differential and a Monospot here today in the office. She will practice good hand hygiene to avoid new illness or spread to others. She is aware of what signs and symptoms to be monitoring for. She will call me she has not heard the results of her testing within a couple of days. She does voice understanding of these recommendations. All questions were answered in the office
