Does Having Mono Cause Dizziness And Breathing Difficulty?

Hi, i'm 15 years old about 5'6 and 115 pounds. I've had mono for about 4 weeks and have been feeling better but I have recently been throwing up, getting really dizzy and having trouble breathing when I get up, it feels like someone is standing on my chest and I'm constantly out of breath, could this be linked to mono? If not, what else could it be

Hey

Yes it could be due to mono.

Get done chest X-Ray and PFT to rule out lung related problem like asthma.
