Okay, so I had strep throat a couple weeks ago.
The past couple days, felt like it was coming back (YES, i did finish my meds). Today I went to student health.
She did a throat culture (won't be back until Friday- which makes no sense. We're part of one of the world's best medical centers and it takes that long to get it back? My doctor at home when I was a kid would have it back in 10 minutes!) and drew some blood to test for MONO.
Now in general, i've felt fine. Same energy level, etc. I told her that (nurse practioner), she said some people don't get the tiredness, etc. Which goes against anything i've ever heard about mono.
So thankfully they'll have the mono test back first thing tomorrow AM. But she wouldn't give me any drugs today, which ticks me off b/c i need to study and can't get any sicker!
ARGH! If anyone's had mono, i'd like to hear how you dealt with it so I can prepare myself
