I should have anticipated another mistletoe curse. Oh well. Who doesn't like the day after regret and feeling that you may have contracted some virus or another?

Be on the look out for Mono. Because that would be a Christmas present that keeps on giving. Or Hanukkah if that's how you go. In honor of Foreman I'll say Kwanza.

If you are experiencing more than two of the following do something about it:
  1. Fatigue even with a lot of rest.
  2. A sore throat that won't quit even after antibiotics
  3. Persistent fever
  4. Swollen lymph nodes at your neck and arm pits, if you don't know what those are look for another symptom
  5. Swollen tonsils
  6. Persistent headache
  7. Skin rash, when you say you have one don't show people. Wait to be asked. No one likes a friendly flasher.
  8. Loss of appetite maybe make a note of the last thing you ate.
  9. Nightsweats this should be particularly noticeable because it's winter.
  10. Swollen spleen if you can't tell, look for another symptom.
Most importantly, if you think you have mononucleosis, tell whatever professional physician you believe you have it or else it maybe musical diagnosis.

Because we don't have extra room on the hospital admission forms, I will say this publicly:

If you have been bit by a werewolf, vampire, mutant spider, zombie or something infectious, contagious or otherwise pretty vital to your own damn diagnosis please be sure to let people know.

And no more lupine lupus jokes. They're not funny.
