    Hi

    I also had gladular fever after being of work with depression and stress. Which has manifested into cfs/ fibromyalga. I suffer with joint pain and extremely heavy legs often feel sick with pain. Just try to manage my pain as best I can with medication, ice and heat . I also try to do a twenty minute walk each day and work through the pain.
