    Hi B555 my liver enzymes were not that high (still twice the norm though) but in mono they say they can go high since mono may impact the liver.

    I got swollen glands (still have them 😦 fatigue was there too.

    Night sweats I used to have them togehter with moderate fever.

    Take care!

    Yes

    This is actually pretty normal stuff when u have mono..

    Pretty sure your doctor would say something if it wasn't.

    Just rest, a lot.

    Hi, my liver enzymes were really high. From memory ALT was around 500 & ALP was also raised too. They gradually decreased weekly & by week 6 were back to normal.

    Hope you feel better soon.
