    Hey Farhan,

    So sorry to hear you're having such a hard time with relapse at the moment. Just want to encourage you with my story - at about 9 months I took quite a relapse too, where all my joints and muscles started to ache and fatigue so much, couldn't understand it I got bruising and everything, first time I'd really had that and just felt that there was never going to be improvement.

    But looking back I think that actually proved to be the start of a full recovery - the relapse lasted a few weeks but after about 10 months I started to make real progress and steps forward towards full recovery - this may be your body's final push to get rid of the virus once and for all Farhan - really hoping and praying that is the case, and fully believing in your recovery still - hang in there and thinking of you - remember good multi-vitamin per day really helps

      Hey Farhan,

      No worries, yes I really hoping so too that you feel normal again soon, I do believe that will happen for both you and Rosanna - recovery with this is very zig-zag, up and down and not at all smooth, so any set back feels like a major blow but it doesn't mean you're all the way back at all it's actually another step towards recovery and means something is happening withint your body to fight it and recover once and for all! It is normal this kind of relapse situation and it will settle, hang in there.

    I have also had a lot of eye floaters for the last 6 months with mono. I have also had blurry vision and  light flashes in the corners of my eyes, very scary. Have no idea why.
