Q: What Are the Chances For Me?

Hello, i've searching all around the internet trying to find some answers, and I figure if I post it here, then maybe they can be answered.

What are my chances of getting mono if back in early december, my best friend's boyfriend was diagnosed with mono? She has developed mono over the course of a few weeks, and I know I have drank after her recently (before she developed the symptoms).

The last time I drank after her was about...3 weeks ago. What are my chances of getting mono? I have never had it, and what can I do right now to help me possibly keep the symptoms as tollerable (if at all) as possible.

Thanks,
krista

ps. I really do not want this disease; especially before school starts back up.

To be sure you dont have it you can have a blood test , I got really bad symptoms but alot of people cant even tell if they have it or not.
