Junior/Senior years of HS: Get a mono like illness several times; I am very very sick, comes up negative in blood tests for epstein bar. Dr. can't help.
Freshman year of college: Get very sick around finals, in the Spring I test positive for mono. Lasts a full 2 1/2 weeks before I'm really back on my feet.
Ever since I have struggled with some sort of risidual "faux mono" disorder. If I don't take good care of myself (particularly not get enough sleep, get too stressed and stretch myself too thin) I am very likely to get very sick. Symptoms are usually very swollen and sore glands in the neck, EXTREME fatigue, sensitive stomach, spiking fever that reaches near 102 at times, terrible body aches, very bad pain in the back of my head where it meets my neck, and then all the way through my neck and shoulders.
I've been to several doctors, and a nutritionist. No one seems to know what is wrong with me but it is a huge problem. It's been going on for almost 4 years. Help!
