I have pain all over my body, symptoms similar to fibromyalgia, but I think is something different because the pain always come with headache and a little bit of sore throat, sometimes my temperature rise up to 2 degrees. This happen often and in one occasion a test for mononucleosis come positive, almost 2 years later I start to feel the same and test for mono was positive again. Is it possible I get mono several times?, this is the third time I feel the same in about 4 years. In one of this occasion I was feeling very sick for about 10 months.
Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Infectious mononucleosis is also called as \"kissing disease\" and glandular fever which is caused by the Epstein-Barr virus (ABV). Infectious mononucleosis is a contagious illness and the infection can be spread by saliva and the incubation period is four to eight weeks. This can be diagnosed by blood tests. People who have this disease continue to shed virus particles in their saliva throughout their lifetime. This can be best treated with antibiotics like penicillin or erythromycin and NSAIDs can be given for fever, headache and body ache. Thank you.
