Could Leg Pain Be Due To Recurring Mononucleosis?

My 9-year old daughter who weighs about 60 lbs and is about 4.5 feet tall, was diagnosed with mononucleosis in June of this year. She still seems to have symptoms. She still has chills and fatigue. Another thing is she has leg aches and weakness. Could the leg pain be associated with the mono? Could she still be suffering from mono?
