Suggest Remedy For Sore Throat When Diagnosed With Mono
I got diagnosed with mono almost three weeks. I had the sore throat and that was about it. I did have a low grade fever of 99.0 for a day. Now I have been feeling fine for six days. I went to doctor on 4 days ago and passed the physical part of mono, he then did a blood test that showed my alt and ast levels were elevated of alt=185 and at 102 and he said I shouldn t play football for another 10 days. I was taking a lot of advil and was originally on amoxicillin for 5-6 days. He said those will not affect my results so I wanted to be retested and he declined.

Hello and thank you for your question.
The danger in contact sports when you have mono is that your spleen can be enlarged and it may rupture if you fall or are hit hard during sports. If you liver enzymes are elevated you need to have them repeated in a few weeks or a months along with tests for hepatitis to make sure they are back to normal.
