Anyone know if swollen glands are something to worry about with connection to CV?

Swollen glands are quite a non-specific sign, associated with infection or inflammation.. I would consider it to be expected.

So basically - that is currently her only symptom. Using the kiss test she is very slightly warmer than expected, but I don't have a thermometer. Guess I had better buy one.

It could be anything. Or nothing. But it is not definitely not CV. Although likely not.

Impossible to tell. I would err on the side of caution. Hope she feels better soon xx

I am actually a bit concerned now that it might be mumps. She looks a bit like a hamster that has stored all its food on one side of its face. It is very painful to move her head/neck too. And she has a bad headache.

She is fully MMRed though (dd is 16).
