oh that really sucks dude.

I have a book in the trunk of my car that should have some homeopathic info on how to aid in the healing process. To be honest, I'm not up for going to get the book, so I'll get back to you tomorrow. I promise

i had it from middle of last feb. to the end of march, so like a month and a half. at the same time i had strept throat and tonsilitis tho, so mono wasn't too bad. I just felt like a lazy sack of shit all day and basically just sat around the house. My remedies included: Tea (all day, with as much antioxidants in it as possible), Copius amounts of ganja (just to hide from boredom), NS, pretty much whatever you can do to pass time and sleep whenever possible

well if you've only had it for a short while now you're in for a treat.  i had it for like 2 weeks, which really isnt too bad compared to some people, but it was one of the worst 2 weeks of my life.  fucking torture.  at any given moment i either felt like I was sitting naked in the north pole, or wearing piles of gortex swimming in the lavas of hell.  and my nose was 100 percent stuffed all the time so i had to always breathe out my mouth and it would get dry as hell. 
so good luck man, oh and have fun making up all the work you miss at school.  try to get someone to bring you your work., even though your gunna feel to shitty to even attempt it.

idk what that doctor was talking about, because oddly enough i did a report on mono shortly before i got it (guess i forgot to knock on wood) and once you get it it remains dormant in your body forever.  meaning yes it does stay in you, but it can never come back

yep fo real. cant do anything that involves a risk of falling for about 6weeks cause if you fall and land on your back you can burst your pancreas and then its all over for you. like dead. it sucks cause i got it right at the start of our ski season and missed heeps of the season. not allowed to skate either which also sucked. and to the dude who just got it.. welcome to possibly the worst coupla weeks of your life haha your gonna be way too stuffed to even feel like doing anything and then when you're in bed you'll be either frozen or covered in sweat its pretty rough eh. the one thing i did do that killed time was teach myself how to crochet. you gotta drink heeps of water dude cause you'll be sweating it straight back out and it helps to keep any toxins flushed out of your system, that way your body doesn't have to deal with them any longer than it has to. and yeah i wouldnt worry about girls for a while cause you'll probably be too stuffed to care about chasing the poon anyway. i think thats about it. rest up dude. peace.

you guys all had mono for a really short period of time. my brother had it for three months or something. it's super shitty especially if you aren't a motivated person because school work will be hell to catch up on. he had to redo half his year because he couldn't keep up with it.
just sleep and drink fluids!
