I had it a year ago, and I am feeling similar symptoms...
Is it like chicken pox, where you get it once (and then maybe later as an older adult as shingles) or is it like the flu, where it comes and goes through out your life?

A friend of mine was stabbed by a suspected HIV carrier. They are currently waiting for the results of the HIV test from the hospital. This is, of course, driving my friend mad. I am trying to be supportive, but, obviously, my friedn is very upset and just not listening to anybody... My question is this... How can I be there for them?? I'm being supportive, I'm being reassuring, but I'm at a loss what to do to help for them now. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Please help!?!

I have been told that I have mono according to bloodwork and have had it for at least 6 weeks but the only symptoms I have that are mono like are extreme fatigue, loss of appetite, and fever. Could something else be disguising itself as mono? I have not been around anyone with mono so I am a little puzzled and am also not really getting better.
