i do notice my cheeks and legs get red when i get fever and those hot flashes....also everytime i take a bath i wont put water too hot anymore but the tops of my feet and my shins break out in what looks like a heat rash but on my legs its like these red spots it honestly kind of looks like pots but i read you normally have a racey heart and other things with it so im just assuming its from the mono making my skin irritated...have you ever experienced any weir skin rashes and breakouts like that?

Hey Katelyn,
I remember thinking that I looked very pale during mono too, and it is only understandable given everything that this virus takes you through, physically, mentally and emotionally. I want to reassure you this can be normal Katelyn, I felt I looked pale too but things returned to normal as I started to feel better with time and especially into that second year.
Still thinking about you and hoping you are coping as well as can be expected at this tough time - hang in there Katelyn I still truly believe you are going to be FULLY well again and that Year 2 is going to be your year of complete recovery. Trusting God with that.
Craig
