Mono + Swine Flu Risk
Hello,

I am currently in my 6th week of a Mononucleosis infection. I am wondering if I have a greater risk of contracting this swine flu that's going around, and if I do become infected, am I at a greater risk for compications due to by current mono infection?

Re: Mono + Swine Flu Risk
I think you would have a lowered resistance to swine flu or any illness right now. Have you taken any steroidal medications? This can also lower your resistance and they give these out like candy now when you have any kind of illness.
