TheHutch Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 Has anyone else ever had Mono? I was diagnosed Sunday (have a severely sore throat since Thursday), went to the ER, did a strep test which was negative, then after a blood test they found out I have Mono. The sore throat is the worst [expletive]ing thing ever. It hurts to even swallow your own saliva. Trying to drink water and stay hydrated, but it hurts like a [expletive]. Not to mention I can't play basketball or any other strenuous activities for 8 weeks (could cause my spleen to swell/burst). Anyone else ever have this? How long before the sore throat went away? Any tricks to help the sore throat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheHutch Posted June 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 The sleeping part feels good, haha. You are always tired and sleep good, but the throat pain is a [expletive]. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenIverson#1fan Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 I had this, I hated it. Parents make you eat but you can't swallow your food. I never want it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
