Answer: Morgan did not have a sore throat, fever, or swollen lymph nodes

Step-by-step explanation:

Signs of these diseases usually are the same for everyone:

Flu is one of the most common diseases to occur in the present time. Typically, the fall season is when flu starts to hit in the year. Headaches, fevers, sore throat, fatigue, runny nose and a slightly flushed face are often symptoms of the disease. Those are symptoms of other diseases too, but they're most related with the flu. As you can see, sore throats are fevers are probably the most notable signs and Morgan didn't have either.

Lyme disease has most of the above symptoms, along with muscle stiffness, rashes and swollen lymph nodes. On the left and right side of your neck there are your lymph glands. They're part of your immune system and filter the unknown substances that go through your face. Typically, you can hardly feel them, but if they pop out and you can see them in clarity, it may mean you have cancer or Lyme disease, and if untreated can cause permanent damage or even death. Therefore, seeing that his lymph nodes are normal, Morgan didn't have Lyme disease either.

Hope that helped a lot. Let me know any further questions.
