Understanding Mononucleosis - Symptoms
What Are the Symptoms of Mononucleosis?
The early symptoms of mononucleosis resemble those of the flu, including:

Severe fatigue.
Headache.
Sore throat, which sometimes can be very severe.
Chills, followed by a fever.
Muscle aches.
After a day or two, these additional symptoms may occur:

Swollen lymph nodes.
Jaundice (a yellow tinge to the skin and eyes).
A measles-like skin rash anywhere on the face or body; sometimes the rash develops suddenly after taking amoxicillin for a severe sore throat.
Tiny red spots or bruise-like areas inside the mouth, especially on the roof of the mouth (palate).
Soreness in the upper-left abdomen, from an enlarged spleen.


Call Your Doctor If:
You have been experiencing mono symptoms -- especially for longer than 10 days -- or you have a severe sore throat for more than a day or two. You need to be examined by a doctor to rule out other illnesses, such as strep throat or -- less likely -- leukemia or infectious hepatitis.
You develop swollen lymph nodes all over your body, which may be a sign of tuberculosis, cancer, or HIV (human immunodeficiency virus).
You develop abdominal pain, which may indicate a ruptured spleen. Seek emergency medical treatment immediately.
You have both a rash and headache occuring together, which might be signs of meningitis.
You develop a rash consisting of many tiny red spots (called petechiae), which could be a sign of a low platelet count or other serious illness such as meningitis.
