Either I got it multiple times, or it took a really long time for me to get over it. I got it my senior year of high school (Homecoming Week, no less), but I kept periodically getting the fatigue and feeling crummy for several years after. The doctors told me that you can only get it once, but my French teacher said that was a load of old crap because her daughter had had it way back when and was still dealing with it. In my understanding, mono is one of those weird diseases that they don't really know as much about as they think they do, and it affects everyone differently. I know people who've had it who were over it within a couple weeks, and then people like my French teacher's daughter. It just depends, I guess.

Some docs are full of shit. I got it freshman year of college, Fall 1999. Ever since then I've never completely recovered my energy back, which has caused ALOT of problems. Every September/October, I test positive for Mono. This is the 6th time and I'm awaiting my results.
