And the winner is..........
MONO! It has been confirmed by the second blood test and an ultrasound of my internal organs. I have an enlarged spleen and have over the top liver enzyme numbers. The fever seems to have disappeared (just like it is supposed to) and has been replaced by a very swollen and sore throat and complete fatigue. I know I am supposed to rest but WHEN??
I have two small children and a full time job. I am going to be going to bed earlier every night and trying to nap when I get home from school (before the kids get home from extended day). I am going to curb my activities with cub scouts - and that is going to be the hardest considering it is all volunteers and I'm one of the main ones. My event, the Bottle Rocket Derby, is the 17th of May.
I hope everyone else out there is doing better than me. Have a wonderful evening.

DON'T overdo it!!!! I'm worried about you, sis.
Doc wants me to come in tomorrow and get chest x-rays, in case what I have isn't bronchitis. I'll let you know what the results are. I'm praying it's not mono, too. :(
Love you!
