This thread looks old, but I am going through a similar situation. I was diagnosed with Mono in June 2019 through MonoSpot. I felt horribly weak, feverish, swollen, sore throat for around 2 months. I haven't felt well since then. Recently, since the beginning of April 2020 I have had the same Mono symptoms and tested positive on a MonoSpot again a couple of days ago. I didn't even think about how similar my symptoms were to Mono this time because even though I am a nurse and know it lives "dormant" in your body after infection, I didn't put 2+2 together this time. I am considering having my PCP perform the more specific immune tests so that I know more about what is going on with me. I am excited to research Dr. Rawls and what he went through, as I can relate to a lot of symptoms/feelings posted here. I really thought I was going crazy!!! God Bless!
