So i go to the doctor today, and he does some blood tests on me... and its affirmative i have freakin MONO! I feel like im dyin over here... i cannot get out of bed, eat anything, speak, swallow, anything.. im just screwed in all areas it seems like...Really bad timing too... considering i just finished my PCT from my last cycle, and really don't want to lose any of those gains.....Another bad thing is my gf is comin home from her out of town school for vday weeekend, and i dunno how to tell her...cause we barely getta see each other as it is.... Another thing, i was supposed to start jury duty today, but i didn't even go cause i was so sick..... and im takin 18 hours this semester, and i can't be out for that long.... Have any of you experienced this mono shit? If so do you have any great ideas to beat this, the fastest way possible???? I've been puttin the water away, but its just so damn hard when my throat is so swollen it barely opens.... like i drool water all over and shit when i drink... HELP IM DYING!

They did not give me anything. All they recommended was rest.

I don't beleive in Mono. I think it is just in your head that you are tired and run down and lazy..................<---Excuses

They said i had Mono back in High School. I think i was just smoking to much Pot......<---Stoner.

[taiboxa]

my liver or wat ever swelled up and shit or spleen or wat ever.. it suckd i was out for 12 weeks+ kuz of the relapse.. so my idea would be to just rest as much as possible

[BuffHottieNtheMaking]

When I had mono my throat hurt too. Green tea with a little bit of honey seemed to help the scratchy throat. I was just trying to sleep as much as possible... In my parents bathroom they have a separate shower and bath and I would fill the bath and the turn the shower on full blast as hot as possible and soak my sore muscles in the bath while steam from the shower filled the room... that seem to help with chest congestion and sore muscles... OJ will help fight it too... and I drank/ate chicken broth... these things are not going to cure you just help make it a little more tolerable!!! Oh yeah remember that you need to stay away from aspirin, because it can put you at risk for a condition called Reye syndrome. Sorry!!! I know it sucks but I hope you get to feelin better!!!

[PaRiS2005]

I don't think I've ever had it. Doesn't sound like fun though. Hope you feel better soon.

[decadbal]

pct.... you took steroids .. your a no good dirty cheater..

[Kärnfysikern]

vitamin c and lots of it.

[ShnouzedUp]

vitamin c and lots of it.

Ya know i was just about to ask this....

How much Vitamin C we talkin exactly?

[Kärnfysikern]

as much as you can possibly consume without shitting your intestines out

When you have a real bad disease like mono its not always that oral dosages of vit c is enough to beat it. But try it anyway. It will help in some way.

When I have bad colds I can get down 50+ grams without getting upset stomach. So try to push it until you get dihareea. Let me know what dosage that ends up as.

[ShnouzedUp]

iight i'll let you know... oh BTW you have an idea just how many mg's of vit c are in 1 orange? I love oranges i think i can plow through 8-10 of em right now. that prednisone shit makes me hungrier than i was in week 10 of my last cycle with EQ problem is i can't eat anything unless its soft and cool for right now.

a orange is maby 50-100mg. So you would have to eat like 100 just to get 10 grams

get some VIt c powder. Mine is "ascorbic acid" and it is 2.25g per 1/2 teaspoon. I usually do that 2-3 times a day. Im a lightweight compared to what Johan does

[ShnouzedUp]

well that didn't help me out to much

[decadbal]

it will take more than a day brotha... vit c is where its all... get ssome glutamine

[Kärnfysikern]

just go to a supplement store and buy ascorbic acid powder or sodium ascorbate, dont watse money on the pills, go with powder.

Or well since you are sic send your girlfriend, buddy or someone else that needs a walk

Fruits are good but you would literaly have to eat impossible ammounts of fruits to get the vitamin c ammounts needed to get rid of something like mono.

Also boatload Zink. Zink is a very good at getting rid of viruses.

Thanks for the help man, im gonna go pick up some ascorbic acid and zinc tomorrow, see if that helps..It feels like the head cold part of this is pretty much gone, all i really have is this horrible swollen throat, and and overall weakness 24/7... there are times i can stay awake for a while.. others i can stay awake no more than 15-20 min. I just hope i can get this shit beat soon.. My boy was tellin me today, that he had it for 6 months the last time he had it.

[Juddman]

damn guys, i thought i was bad this year with a couple of colds and the flu...i wish you the best in your recovery

[Juddman]

yea a buddy of mine found out months later when the lab messed up his blood test and didnt tell him he had mono...he got over it without even knowing he had it by just resting...i hope yours is just as easy to get over

Starting feel like its headin that direction, i have been sleeping like i never have in my life the past 3-4 days now....plus i wasn't feeling to well all last week, and was sleepin like 10 hours a day, but i thought that was just the pct crap ass feeling... i had that last pct as well... Overall im starting to feel better, but my throat is still killing me... like swallowing a handful of knives!!! However this feeling of feeling better could just be all the drugs im on as well.. im loaded up on prednisone, robitussin, this sinus reliever, ludends throat drops, and a 500mg pain reliever... gah im so tired of sleeping though, my back is killing me.... oh yea im down a good 8lbs already too...grrrr

[DwinsChamps]

Thanks a lot, i'll start that tomorrow... what kind of creme? should this be prepared hot or cold?

Johan, i started out using 1000mg of Vit C today, i really feel the difference.. feel a lot better over all... My throat is still freakin killin me though. That, and i still have problems just randomly passing out. My sleep sucks, i'll passout for like 2 hours. wake up for 5 minutes.. passout again... really hard to eat as well... no matter what it is, it has to be extremely soft, my throat just can't take it.... basically been sippin on protein shakes with ice cream, and fruit, and mac and cheese.... anyone have any other suggestions?

100mg is a start. Now increase it 15 fold to 15 000 mg or even 30 000. I have gone as high as 60 000 when sic.

[DwinsChamps]

You can add the creme to your hot tea straight from the 'frige. I like half & half, but personal preference is the best way to go. Try making the tea really hot, add some creme, and breathe in the fumes until it's cool enough to sip.

You posted this at 2:14 am?? Get some rest bro! I know it's hard to sleep, but that's the best thing you can do for yourself.

[ShnouzedUp]

i know man, but its hard to stay asleep when you sleep all day and all night days and days in a row.... now it seems like im asleep for 2-3 hours up for about 30 min. then back to bed.... i'm feeling about 80% better today than yesterday though..
