I notice that those suffering from mono
all had very sore throats which
fortunately i dont but i do have very very
swollen glands on both sides and lumps on
my throat, behind my ear and at the back
of my head. I feel exhausted and have
little or no appetite and have a rather
sickly stomach sometimes nausea, i also
have a white flemlike substance down my
throat at one side..but it is not sore!!
i generally feel not well and i was
wondering could you tell me whats
wrong???
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.
