I got mono about 6 months ago. At work, the cold/flu has been passed around and everyone has had the same symptoms and has gotten over it in about 3 days. I have become infected, but have had it for 5 days now. I feel exactley like I did when I had mono...constant headache, spleen area is very sore, I feel very fatigued, sore all over, loss of appetite, and my glands in my throat are slightly swollen. Is it possible for a cold/flu to onset mono?
