How To Treat Mono?

My daughter was just diagnosed with mono due to her blood work. She also, though, has blood in her urine, which she is now on antibiotic to treat. Her doctor does not seem to know what the blood in the urine is from-believes it is a separate problem. Could the blood in urine be part of the mono? Thanks!
