Mono E Mono

Well remember how I was really sick and throwing up? Well it turned out that I had food poisoning so I went to the Dr. and had a blood test and it also turns out that I have mono! The kissing disease! Mononucleosis! I am way bummed out. I have never had mono before, and it has made me feel very strange. Most of the time I just feel like I have a regular cold, and then I will get hit with a wave of tiredness and I cant even lift my arms or barely stand. And I cant lift anything very heavy because I could rupture my spleen! I am very grateful for my work for being so caring about me and making sure I get plenty of rest so that I can come back soon. I was out of commission for a week, and basically slept most of the days. My Dr. said their is no medication for mono because it is a virus so the best thing I can do is get plenty of rest and just "Take it easy". I am feeling much better today and can't wait to go back to work, because I have been so board at home by myself. So just a warning to family or any other people I have been with in the past couple of weeks. I am very very sorry if I gave it to you too. I learned that you can have mono for weeks before symptoms even show up. So it you think you might have it go get a blood test.
