Doctor Question
Well i have mononucleosis. I've had it so for for about 5 or 6 weeks.I am tired and weak and sore throat and sometimes headaches. But my main symptom is nausea and fullness. I have an enlarged spleen and my doctor said the nausea and fullness is because of that. It seems like forever and I was just wondering how long the spleen is enlarged for?
