I am sorry but that statement bothers me. The spleen is enlarged and
the intestinal lymph nodes are enlarged, but there's nothing wrong?

I totally disagree. If this is true there is something going on. I
would get another opinion. You want to catch things early and perhaps
by the time other signs occur your chances are not as good as they
could be now. Sorry to be blunt but I don't want something to happen
because I didn't. Best of luck to you and your little one.


**I agree absolutely with Dr. Sue. An enlarged spleen with enlarged lymph
nodes can mean IBD, lymphoma, etc. This needs to be looked into further. A
slightly or even moderately enlarged spleen doesn't bother me much, but add in
the lymph nodes and alarm bells should start to go off.**
