Hey guys..Well i've been dealing with mono for the past 3 weeks now..And today after one of my tonsils were as swollen as a a giant ballooon...It popped today..And oh man did all that stuff coming out taste bad..Horrible horrible..But it was worth it cause now its starting to shrink..And I can talk/swallow with much less pain ..So let's hope it keeps up

i just wanted to offer some advice in terms of doctors telling you there is no cure except rest because it is a virus. Well maybe to the pharmaceuticals there is no cure, but there are plenty of foods and herbs out there that are very anti-viral, i'll start with what I used that worked amazing wonders in only the last 2 days...Garlic..Eat as much of this stuff as you can..Other anti-viral foods consist of onions, brocolli, berries, and apples

also..While there are other antiviral herbs out there for mono(google it), I used echinacea/echina force..It's a flower with strong anti-viral properties

i can definitely related to the torture and pain faced with this stuff..Especially in the morning eh...But just endure it, I found that I forced myself to talk a lot today..And the tonsil just randomly popped while talking

anyways hope this can help someone out there, just be ready for when your tonsils pop for it to taste like crap..Plug your nose and rinse rinse rinse...Then get some gum or halls or something to keep the taste out

peace,
jon
