Mono can be manifested with sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, tiredness, nausea, etc. There are other infections (bacterial or viral) that can be manifested with the same symptoms. Mono can be easily proven with a serological blood test (specific antibodies against the virus are detected in the serum).


You may want to consult your GP or an infectologist, if necessary.
