I'm dying here. I don't know what to do with myself. I get dizy and then fall asleep for a few hours. I get all this sleep and I still have no energy. Everything hurts. Thats been the highlight of my week. and the doctor told me today it's only going to get worse.

I'll stop my bitching now. Share mono stories.

Lady T · 10-01-2004, 10:56 PM

I had a very bad case of mono back in 1999; I was sick for 3 1/2 weeks...

Rhiannon · 10-01-2004, 11:04 PM

I've never had mono; it sounds like it sucks ass

Kazza · 10-01-2004, 11:38 PM

Watch the 'Felicity' ep where everyone catches mono..It'll make you feel better

I had mono my frosh year of college. I haven't felt good since. It's been 20 years. LOL Drink lots of OJ and rest rest rest. And dont kiss anyone or you'll give it to the other person. It used to be called The Kissing Disease. So no tongues.

I had mono when I was in the 9th grade. It started like a terrible sinus infection. Then it became the worst soar throat I have ever exeprienced before or since. Then it went into that thing you're talking about: no energy. I'd staqger to the bathroom when I had to and then go back to bed. That was about all there was to my life. That part went on for several weeks. It was like I didn't exist anymore. I was allowed to leave school in May (more than a month before the school year ended). My grades were good so they passed me without finishing the year based on the grades I had at that time. It was an awful experience. I feel for you. Hang in there.

Ditto. Too bad there's no vaccine for mono.

Mono SUCKS!
I had a really severe case back in 1999; I was literally bedridden for almost an entire month; you are so weak, and you feel like you are dying (literally), I also lost like 20 pounds...

dandelion wine · 10-02-2004, 02:05 AM

Don't really have any stories to share except that I knew a girl who had it.. just hope you get well asap.

Chelsea · 10-02-2004, 04:04 AM

Due to the, erm, close-knit nature of a lot of people from my former HS, almost a fourth of the school had it at almost the same time last year.

Mossopp · 10-02-2004, 06:20 AM

I thought I had mono once. Turns out I was just really bored.

If you don't know what you have you should go to the doctor's and get checked out.. And see what is wrong with you! I hope you feel better and everything is okay...

I had mono from 4th-7th grade. Talk about long... 3 years. I could only stay out of school so long. Three years of a constant sore throat, three years of dragging my feet out of bed, three years of sleeping in class... then on top of it, I caught chronic bronchitis in the middle of it, and had that for about 6-7 months.

Actually, if you gave me a blood test right now, it would come up negitive for mono, as I don't have it anymore- but the virus actually stays in your blood stream for a good 2-3 years. It's a pain in my ass. I caught it from sharing a Coke with my cousin. To this day, I still share drinks with people. You think after all that, I would have learned by now, honestly...
