Is mononucleosis bacterial or viral? Does everyone get mono at some time? How does mono spread? Basic facts and definitions about "the kissing disease". ...
Do you know what causes mono? Although children are more at risk than adults,what can you do to avoid getting sick from mono? Review risk factors here....
The symptoms of mono may not manifest for everyone who contracts the Epstein-Barr virus. But when are symptoms serious? And when should you seek medical help?...

i dont really know..I mean if there was bacteria on the tooth brush from his im sure its possible..But I guess the best thing to do is go to the doctor and get medication ...So if you did get some the bacteria in your mouth..Then the medicine could possibly kill it before it can get any worse...

I had mono about 3 years ago. It sucked. If you do get it, it probably won't "show up" for another week. Until then, make sure that you get plenty of sleep and take some vitamins to boost your immune system.

If I was exposed to mono, which was 3 days ago. I already have a sore throat! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Can mono affect me this early?
My mom also has this!!!!!!! She might have also been exposed to it. Help!
