I had the same thoughts when will i get better and all of a sudden i am feeling a lot better. I am not sure what reason or why but i do feel closer to my old self at this moment. I am sure you will have it coming to you too. I finally said i have mono and i have to move forward and then click i felt better somehow. God is mysterious in his ways i guess. Maybe i will continue to move forward.

Great to hear Josh you that you are seeing some improvements, hoping very much that this can be the start of you entering into a fully recovery and anointing. Hang in there and continue just to take things a day at a time, you will get there I truly believe.

Everyone I know that has had this goes through some sort of relapse for at least the first year. I am 10 months today from diagnosis. I have had it a couple of weeks longer but I use that as my monoversary. I am in a relapse now. I have had many. They get less severe the longer I go. This one sucks. But compared to some I have had.....I am actually grateful. I am about 4 days in to this one and can still totally function. I am having the sleep issues. Vibrating upon waking (somedays before this I use to vibrate all day and have tremors). I am having digestive issues but they aren't keeping me from eating (YAY!!!) Higher than normal heart rate etc etc. This virus is a roller coaster. Hopefully if you are having a relapse it won't be long lived or severe. Finger crossed for you!

Totally agree Wendi, these kind of relapses can often happen during recovery, and they do become less severe, less intense, less long-lasting and less often as time goes on, until they no longer happen at all.
Very much hoping for improvement and progress for your Wendi, I know you've been through so much and thanks for your words of encouragement for everyone. Thinking of you still - hang in there, better times are ahead.

Hi Wendi, Lori,
I am sorry you are suffering with this awful virus for so long... it seems that maybe we are in the same boat, as I have been suffering with my mystery symptoms since March 2018, 12 months now. I was so healthy and happy before this and overnight I woke up with an internal tremor thinking I was dying.... it came with a page full of symptoms. The best part is I still dont have a diagnosis , no doctor thought of testing me for ebv and most of them put it down to hormones and I lost so much time thinking this was perimenopause.
Wendi, I have the vibrating too, its awful. Ive had it every single day since this torture started and yes I wake up with it, the first 6 months I think I had it all day.... has any doctor told you what it is?? I would appreciate it if you could share your story .... you can pm me...
This week I will hopefully know if this was indeed ebv and let you know ...
Sending you my wishes for a fast recovery.

Take it as encouraging Lori that the blood work has been good - I know that can be frustrating in a strange way, not because you want it to show anything up but you just want an explanation as to why you've been feeling as you have been. I had lots of clear blood tests during recovery from mono even when I was still feeling quite unwell. It can be very normal during mono.
Just hoping so much that things become much more stable and settled soon Lori. I believe that YES there will be an end to this nightmare for you, and that God is going to make sure of that and bring you into a better, more peaceful and healthy phase of your life. Hang in there Lori, thinking about you today and standing in agreement with your prayers for recovery.

I am sorry to hear you are struggling so much. While I certainly don't anyone else to feel bad, it is comforting to know their are others experiencing similar symptoms in this awful situation. Next week I will hit my 18 month mark of Mono onset. There are definitely so many ups and downs. I am currently coming out of a flare-up (I hope). As each month passes, it does seem to be improving. Slowly, but surely. The first few months, even brushing my teeth sounded like a huge task. Now, I can do that (among many other things) without even thinking twice. I believe we will all get there. We just have to hang on when the times are miserable.

Ugh, there were many mistakes in my last post. My brain has been mush the last couple of weeks! I can't wait to be done with the brain fog.

Hi Kris,
I do empathise, 18 months of this or any tough time is draining to go through. It's frustrating when progress is very slow at times. Just want to encourage and reassure you that it can happen with this thing that seem to get 'stuck' at the same of very similar tough level for many many months with little progress, and then all of a sudden a big change or step forward can happen in a short space of time. There is lots that seems to suggest this is something that can be common with this virus - so don't lose hope and hoping and praying for a big step forward and breakthrough for you over the coming period Kris - hang in there. There is hope and this thing does get better, truly it does even though it seems to go on and on and on unfortunately at the time.
