I am always bit tired; feel like I have a fever but no temperature on thermometer ;sore throat often; headache when very tired; lymph node still up in cervical regions.

I am anxious about my future... can anyone reassure me that all this is fine?

    Hi Jessie,

    You will recover, it took me around a year to start the recovery process, my daughter and granddaughter also. Keep checking in with the doctor for blood work. Maybe an infectious disease doctor as they have more experience with mono.

      How did you know when you were recovering and when could you start exercising regularly?

      Thanks so much for your reply!

      I started having little periods of feeling better, an up and down process. I would start with very short walks and build up from there if it doesn't set you back, I would gradually increase. I had covid three months ago so I had a set back with that and haven't started exercising yet.
