Health Update
Feeling better now, almost back to normal, minus 10 pounds, not that I needed to loose ten pounds. I am being to look like a rake again. I should probably try to put them back on as muscle. That will have to wait, I am under orders to avoid strenuous physical activity, especially contact sports. Apparently my spleen and my liver are still swollen and injuring them now would be bad.
I peeked at my lab results when I went to my doctor yesterday. I can now understand why he was so worried last weak: my liver was displaying "unusual functionality," basicly it was on a work to rule campaign. Pretty much the only liver indicator that wasn't insane was bilirubin, the stuff that causes jaundice. If it had been as high as the others I would still be yellow.
Anyways, I got check out again, and most of the signs of mono are fading. There is a grey slime that forms on your throat when you have got mono. That is almost gone (The doctor who was checking out my throat gave a very strange squeaking noise when he found the slime).
I expect to be lasrgely back to normal by the end of the week and to have gotten rid of the last lingering effects by the end of the month.
