Answer:
Mono can be a really bad disease.
I had it, and I lost my voice for a day or two.
Your tonsils will swell up extremely massive, and get huge white puss-pockets, and you'll get a fever.
My physician said there wasn't really any way to treat it, but he gave me stuffed called “Magic Mouthwash”. It was a mixture of stuff, even had some morphine in it. It was basicallly just a pain killer and a barrier.
It takes about a week for the throat to get better, but other symptoms can take up to 6 months to clear up.
And once you get it, you’ll always have it. It will come back up once maybe every year or so.
Also, sometimes your spleen can enlarge, so if you feel pain in your left side, you need to contact your physician again. They might have to remove it, so it doesn't burst.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
Once you get mono its for life, it lies inactive in your system after it “goes away” for a while, and it could come back at any time. I think the systems last about a few weeks to a month? Don't take my word for it but im pretty sure, ive had quite a few friends with mono.
