Sarah, hope you feel better soon. I've had Mono...when I was 18 and I had a severe case of it. Lasted months and literally wiped me out. All I did was sleep. Right now, I have what I think is the flu. Sore throat, ear aches, fever....and I just cannot seem to shake it. I guess it does last a week or so - maybe I'm just impatient - but I am taking an antibiotic so if it's not viral it should help. I couldn't work with this, though. It just zaps my energy. Even posting wears me out. But I'm sure MS in the mix doesn't help matters, either. I hope the docs get on the ball and get something for you to take. You don't want to let an infection linger on. Have you tried Zicam?

Feel better soon!!!
