Do/did you guys have these symptoms? Every time I move my jaw I hear clicks in my ears and it also constantly hurts and causes headaches.

    I so have the symptom but I don’t have mono. It’s called TMJ disorder, and you should seek help from a dentist. So far, they recommend me a splint that costs $1000 to fix my jaw position and I haven’t yet decided.

      It began exactly at the same time as mono, so I think they are related in my case.

    Hey Catch the Bus,

    Sorry to hear you're having these kind of pains, I do think glandular fever can cause all sorts of strange symptoms so it may well be connected, worth getting checked out by doctor or dentist anyway. I've had problems with grinding my teeth causing tension in those kind of muscles and that area, and have worn a night splint in my teeth prepared by the dentist over the last year, it has really helped, maybe worth thinking about or asking the dentist about.

    Still believing you are going to make a full recovery Catch the Bus, hang in there! You WILL get there.
