Can I just vent?
I HATE when people call mono the kissing disease, cause I certianly did NOT get it from kissing. My bf at the time had mono when he was in high school, and he was the only boy I was kissing. Nor did he suffer a replase at any time we were dating.
My doctor thinks I got it from my roommate, who was SUPPOSED to use plastic knives and plates for 3 months after she got mono, but instead decided she was going to resume using the apts plates after 3 weeks...without telling anyone. I never knew she was using them, and since I was the only person who never had mono in the apt- BAM, I get mono.
That or somehow I got it from one of my pole vaulting teammates, who proably coughed on a pole or the mat or something, and I got it that way...cause I never shared waterbottles.
Either way, I made it 21 years without mono...and then missed most of my senior year because of it. I went from mono, to strep, to upper respitory infection, to pnemonia and a really bad asthama attack in a week. And I wondered why my asthma doctor insisted I get a flu shot this year...
End vent.
