Subject: Enlarged lymph glands

I recently took my little female, Coco, she is 5 1/2 years old to the
vet for yearly vaccinations. Besides having a reaction to the
vaccinations the vet upon examination said that her lymph nodes
(glands)? were larger than a year ago with her last examination. He
advised me that in his experience I could be seeing symptoms of
lymphoma within the year and recommended that she be put on Pediapred
1/2 ml twice a day. Does this sound feasible? What are the side
effects of this medication and is this a small dose as time goes by will
I need to increase this? Very unsure and hesitant!!! Julie
