hi there, a high fever with chills and leucocytes and RBCs in urine are very much indicative of UTI and her urine should be sent for culture and senstivity and antibiotics started accordingly. Mono may be a concommmitent finding but per se will not cause these urinary symptoms. Give her plenty of fluids and syrup citralka to decrease her discomfort but it will be best to start her on appropriate antibiotics at the earliest. Take care.
