What Causes Recurrence Of Mono Infection Symptoms After Treated It?

Hi, I am 39 and was diagnosed with mono 3 weeks ago. I took the doctors advice and stayed in bed for 2 weeks. During the 3rd week I started feeling much better until last night. Now the symptoms are back twice as strong and I dont understand why. Whats going on?

dear patient. i understand your problem.
the most important cause of recurrence of mono infection is due to decreased body immunity.
YOU need to focus on your diet.take high amounts of proteins like two boiled eggs everyday plus a milkshake along with your regular diet.Take a tablet of multiviatamin everyday. As the nutrition improves in the right direction,thereby immunity also improves and your symptoms will resolve fast. Its not uncommon to see the symptoms to recur. so be patient,you will get ok .mono usually lasts for maximum of 3 weeks. improve your nutrition and be patient.you will get better.
hope this answers the question.
