Hi Rosanna,
I've experienced all of these except fever. While most symptoms have gone away, I still have a few that cycles through. The first 3 months were the toughest for me with all the symptoms you've name plus heartburn. As time goes on symptoms will go away. It just takes time and lots of rest. Don't panic and try not to worry as I've done in the beginning. I know it's easier said than done. Have patience with you body as it tries to fight it.
If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.

Hey Rosanna,
Yes those symptoms all sound common to me, want to reassure you that it's normal to go through those things with the virus, although I know that's not much help when having to go through the horrible experience. The pain in the upper stomach could be from the spleen, which is where lots of glands are, the doctor should be able to check this out for you though, sometimes people are told to watch what they're doing if the spleen is enlarged - but it's normal to have pain there even without the spleen being enlarged - a simple check up with the doc can check that out I think.
Thinking about you and remember you will get better, hang in there just now I know it's tough but this is by far the worst phase and better times are ahead.
