Has anyone with mono experienced a loss of equilibrium or balance? it's generally only when I move or turn my head too quickly, I feel this momentary loss of balance - or as if the ground is closer than I thought it was? It's a new symptom for me, at first I thought it was blocked sinuses wreaking havoc but it's not.

Hi Emma,
I have had random dizzy spells this time around. However, 16 years ago when I had mono in college I had an off balance feeling before the onset of the rest of the symptoms and I remember even a year or so later I had a couple weeks where I felt off balance. Not sure if it was still mono or unrelated, but it felt l I had just gotten off an elevator all the time. Like the floor was moving or wasn't level.

That's exactly the feeling! Like I've gotten out of an elevator or things aren't level. I hope it goes away 😦

I'm around 2 months in as well (officaially 10 weeks). How are you feeling otherwise?

I think im around 8 weeks in. The dizziness sucks a lot, obviously you know. Its thankfully gone away, but its disappeared before and then returned. I still feel fatigue, but I can function more than before. I can walk, but I don't push it. Overall, my biggest issue is this nasal congestion that started when everything hit. OVERALL, I feel better, but still sick. I'm hoping we're both over the worst hump of the virus.

Hi Emma,
I have this too. It is one of my most prevalent symptoms unfortunately and it somehow always catches me off guard! Hope you're doing well otherwise.
