[QUOTE="SRL, post: 47434, member: 701"] I was already several days into antibiotics when the sore throat hit and tests in that case almost always come back negative. Strep coincides with a pretty good percentage of mono cases so it's very possible I had both in the cooker at the same time. Thankfully the very swollen tonsil and high throat has subsided--that part was the worst not only due to the pain but getting liquids and foods in and having an unobstructed airway. My throat is still swollen and hurting, but it's in the midsection. I was able to get liquids down fairly easily yesterday and ate more mashed potatoes with butter than any woman in her 40's should eat in a single day. Anybody know of anyone who has had mono in their 40's? I think unless severe it could easily be mistaken for a very bad cold or strep throat but I don't know anyone who has had it at the ripe old age of 45. [/QUOTE]
