  • I'm so sorry your daughter has this. I've had it since I was 12 y.o. now I am 42, but only recently realized I may have it. I was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome about 8 years ago & all my life had different bouts of illnesses i.e. Mono when 12 & 14 y.o., staph infection, & chronic strep throat no matter if i exercised or ate right. I continue to progress as years pass. Your daughter might also suffer from Irritable Bowel Syndrome. Check with doctor or check an IBS website for help.

  • I got mono sophomore year of high school. When I wasn't getting better we went back into the doctors and they told me that I no longer had mono but epstein barr virus. Now I'm a junior... or more, should be a junior. I've been out of school since last school year. It's been really tough but the good thing is that young people recover 100% from it actually. I have a doctor at one of the leading hospitals in the world and she's cured many teenagers of this. The only proven cure is physical therapy

  • thank you for sharing your story.

  • i have mono i got it from eating after my friend dumb me -_-

  • thanks for sharing.

    wish your daughter stay healthy always .

  • my mom got me over mononucleosis in two weeks with hot sweats, hot liquids, plenty of vitamins (water soluble B and C vitamins carefully dosed every half hour).

  • Your daughter may have something wrong with her immune system? Lots of teenagers get it, and don't have flare ups afterwards, unless their immune system gets suppressed someway. Yes, it stays with you, but a healthy immune system can make it stay dormant. If you have had mono and wanna better protect yourself from future outbreaks... eat healthy, exercise, drink plenty of water, take a multivitamin, and for heavan's sake wash your hands!!! Thanks for the video, and good luck to your family!

  • @Heathen531 what about Aleve???

  • I've had this virus for years... It sucks.

  • hey best wishes for your daughter, i was wondering was one of her symtoms diarrhea?
