Mono - March 4th 2010, 01:11 AM

So... last semester, maybe september or october of last year, I got mono. I didn't find out that I had gotten mono until last month, which means, obviously, that I don't have it anymore. The way I found out is that I've been conditioning for track and simply haven't had the energy to run. Actually, for the past two or three months, I haven't been able to do much of anything (something as simple as putting my hair in a pony tail makes my arms tired). So, when I found out I had mono, my doctor put me on steroids for a week. But I haven't been feeling any better or stronger.

Can anyone tell me how long this muscle weakness will last??

When I got sick, it was the middle of cross country season and I only missed one day at the height of my illness. I ran through it and am still running. Has my running hindered my recovery?

If someone could direct me to any sort of website that can give me the answers I need, that would be appreciated!

Thanks!
