How Can severe Fatigue Along With Headache Be Treated?

Hello. I am a (very) healthy 72 yr old female. Very recently i have been diagnosed with (possible)Mononucleosis by my excellent family physician.(Symptoms: extreme fatique, sore throat, swollen glands, sweats, headaches). She has prescribed lots of rest, fluids and to avoid close contact with people for a few weeks. I am invited to a party this Weekend. I want to send my regrets,even if i am very careful yet some friends claim that there is no thread of contageousness. Could you please advise? (My physician is not available to give such till after the party.) I don t want to put anybody at risk!!

Hi,

You can spread mononucleosis to your friends to that party by saliva. This means that you can spread it by kissing them, sneezing or coughing near them. Also if you share food and drink with them you can spread it to them. It can also be spread through blood and seven. If it is less likely for blood transmission to happen in party you can transmit it to your partner through intercourse by body fluids.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
