I was sick with mono back in 1967 (16 yrs old). I had a couple years of sore throats, white tonsils, fatigue, loss of appetite, swollen glands, low-grade fevers, (I think). When they finally tested me for mono, I was so sick, they put me in the hospital for about 3 weeks or so.
Recovery took a long time. Spent 3 months after returning home from the hospital, just laying around; resting. The doc said the only cure was rest, so that's what I did. Slowly I began to regain strength and energy.
I was told the mono could perhaps have a lifetime affect on me. Not sure if it did.......
