Question Posted Thursday February 10 2005, 7:19 pm
I've had a really, really sore throat for the past 3 weeks, which was the last time I made out with someone. This kid was saying it sounded like when his friend had mono and that I should check it out, because I have some of the other symptoms of it as well [fatigue,headache,body aches,abdominal pain],but I wasn't sure if that's true because it has been three weeks.
Does anyone know if mono is a possibility?

Anyway, you should get tested just in case, because those are the symptoms. It could easily be something else though, like a cold or something. But just to be safe I'd get tested. Good Luck!!!

You better have it checked out because, untreated, it can only become worse. You will need to take very good care of yourself. Hope you feel better soon.

Notso answered Thursday February 10 2005, 8:04 pm: mono is a possibility, or it could just be the flu, or strep throat. One characteristic of mono is swollen glands, which you can feel under your armpits, your jawline (just a little bit further forward from your ears) and where your leg joins your torso near your pubic bone.
