Hi there, I'm sorry to hear you are not feeling well! 1)You might consider that you may be allergic to something that you are eating or drinking since you had mentioned that you get diahrrea every...
I have been using it but my initial intention to use it was to fight this numbness I had in my extremities. I got that from taking Humira for Crohn's Disease. I have been taking it for 1 1/2 months...

So it can't be anything to do with Mono then, but possibly it's a side effect caused by initially being assaulted by some sort of infection. And then to make matters worse the useage of antibiotics...
