:( I have had gastroenteritis flu-like
symptoms for a month. The doctor did an
ebv test and he said my igg & igm
values were off the chart, so he diagnosed
me with infectious mononucleosis. The
probem, however, is that my symptoms are
very atypical. I have had three major
symtoms since november: nausea, bad or
bitter taste in my mouth, constant
headache. My throat has been fine and no
swollen glands. I did have fever at the
start. Thiis sounds very different from
symptoms that I have read about on the
internet. Has anyone heard of these
symptoms associated with mono.
Have a great day :d

Yes - I have mono and gastro symptoms
right now. My doctor said that he also
just saw another patient recently who had
abdominal pain and all they could find was
mono. But to be sure we are testing for
other possible causes, but have yet to
find anything.
There are some sites that list gastro
symptoms and there are research studies
where people with mono have exhibited
gastro symptoms. But I would recommend
working with an infectious disease doctor
and possibly even a gastro.
