What Are Chances Of Mono Recurring?

I had mono about 4 or 5 months ago. The doctor said i got it sometime in april maybe and i came in around june because i wasn't feeling well. So technically the mono should be out of my system right? I know its something that will never go away but i shouldn't be feeling any of the symptons anymore. Around the beginning of August i was feeling better, but now I'm getting headaches again and i feel extremely tired, but that could be school related. I was just wondering if it's possible for me to have mono again.

thanks for posting your query to health care magic.
Infectious mononucleosis is caused by EBV virus. once you recovered from disease virus can be shaded from your saliva for months and it is not possible for body to completely clear off it . so chances are there to repeat the attack of virus it depend upon your immune status ,whenever immunity goes down chances are incresed .
thanks.
