Went to UC yesterday staff was friendly and very professional, struggled a bit with registration (at my age we all are not computer saby). Besides I was in a lot of pain It took me more time to register than to be seen by the Dr. I don't know where technology is trying to bring us but, while I was struggling with registration the two receptionists where entertaining each other without their cellphones.

I came here two weeks ago for strep. I tested negative with the swab and the culture also apparently came back negative (I never received a call and followed up myself). Two weeks later the sore throat returned and I have a very swollen tonsil on one side. I was prescribed a second round of antibiotics for strep, which is fine but I’m confused why I wasn’t swabbed again because as far as they know I never tested positive, and could be subjecting myself to another round of antibiotics without knowing for sure it’s strep. I’m confused on how I’m now doing two full treatments for strep with no positive diagnosis. I hope it’s not mono or something else.

Cory was amazing. My only major concern was that I identified that my daughter had a medication allergy and the APRN who saw us prescribed the one she was allergic to (which I picked up at the pharmacy and paid for) and I had to call back and get a different one. If they document allergies, that should not be ignored when prescribing.

I brought my son in really disappointed after he cut his hand on a metal sign. Every single staff person I came in contact with was extremely helpful, nice and accommodating. The provider was awesome. He attended to us quickly and had us out in 20 minutes. I appreciate everyone here. Keep up the great work.

Westfield Mono Tests

A mono test can be used to identify mononucleosis, which is an infectious viral disease. Mono is caused by several viruses, the most common of which being the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV).

Mono can afflict persons of any age, although it affects teenagers and young adults the most frequently and visibly. Mono will develop in one out of every four teenagers and adults infected with EBV.

If you have mono symptoms, your doctor may order or perform a mono test for you. Mono symptoms include fever, headache, sore throat, tiredness, rash, and swollen glands in the neck or armpits, which are quite similar to the flu.

Mono tests come in two forms: the monospot test and the EBV antibody test. In the blood, the monospot test searches for specific mono antibodies, whereas the EBV test looks for antibodies specific to EBV. Both tests require a blood sample, which can be taken from a vein in your arm or from your finger. A mono test may be used with other tests, such as a complete blood count or throat culture, to confirm or rule out a mono diagnosis.

Because a tiny needle is used to sample blood from your finger or arm, a mono test takes less than five minutes to conduct. Your blood is extracted into a small tube or vial and tested in minutes to discover if antibodies suggestive of mono are present. A mono test requires no preparation, though it may cause minor side effects like as discomfort or bruising at the injection site, which usually subsides after a few minutes.

If your mono test is positive, your doctor will talk to you about your treatment options. Mono normally goes away on its own after a few weeks, although some people may experience long-term fatigue. Getting enough sleep and drinking enough of water are essential.

Mono Test FAQs

  • How much does a mono test cost Westfield?

    A mono test's price is determined by a number of factors, including test provider pricing, geographic location, and whether or not your health insurance plan covers the test. To discover more about your benefits and coverage, contact the mono test provider directly.

  • Does insurance cover mono testing?

    Mono testing is covered by many health insurance policies, especially if your doctor determines that it is medically necessary based on your symptoms and current health status. Contact your health insurance provider directly to see if mono testing is covered. Some mono test companies will check your insurance benefits to determine if this test is covered.

  • Who should get tested for mononucleosis Westfield?

    Anyone experiencing mono symptoms should be tested for the virus to confirm or rule out the diagnosis. Mono symptoms include fever, sore throat, headache, tiredness, rash, and swollen glands in the neck and armpits, which are similar to flu symptoms. Mono can affect everyone, but it affects teenagers and young adults more frequently.

  • How do they test for mono Westfield?

    Blood is drawn from your fingertip or an arm vein for a mono test. Both methods have a lot in common. The testing provider will pierce your finger with a little needle and draw blood into a small tube or vial during the fingertip test. A little needle will be inserted into your arm to draw blood into a small tube or vial to collect blood from a vein in your arm by the testing provider.

  • How long does a mono test take Westfield?

    A mono test is reasonably quick, requiring no more than five minutes whether blood is drawn from your fingertip or arm. Mono tests don't normally necessitate any preparation and don't cause any downtime. Even though a mono test only takes a few minutes, your session may last longer if you have to wait your turn. Check the duration of the mono testing and your appointment with the mono testing provider ahead of time.

  • How long does it take to get mono test results?

    Mono test results are often available within five to ten minutes, while some mono test kits can take up to an hour to complete. Contact the mono testing provider for more information on when your mono testing results will be returned. In most situations, your test results will be available the same day you take it.

  • Where should I get a mono test Westfield?

    Whether blood is obtained from your fingertip or your arm, a mono test takes no more than five minutes. Mono testing usually does not require any preparation and does not result in any downtime. Even though a mono test is only a few minutes long, it can take longer if you have to wait for your turn. Before you go, double-check the duration of the test and your appointment with the mono testing provider.

  • How accurate are mono tests?

    Mono tests have been demonstrated to be trustworthy, with an accuracy rate of 95 to 100 percent. Mono tests that just search for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) antibodies, on the other hand, have been shown to produce fewer false negatives than other antibody tests. False-positive findings can arise in patients who have been infected with specific diseases such as HIV, lymphoma, or rubella, because antibodies from these diseases can stay in the bloodstream for up to a year.

  • How can I book a mono test through Solv?

    One of the simplest ways to arrange a mono test is to use Solv, which generates a list of the best mono test providers, along with their contact information. Type "mono test" into the "What" section on our home page, then choose your location from the "Where" selection box to the right. Select your favorite mono test provider from the list provided, then use the contact information to schedule a same-day appointment.

  • Can I do at-home mono testing?

    There are no at-home mono test kits available to diagnose mono in yourself or a loved one in the comfort of your own home at this time. A blood draw is required for this test, which must be done by a certified and experienced medical expert. A mono test may be performed at your house by some healthcare providers, but there are no test kits accessible for self-testing at home.
