Very worried...

Sending prayers for both you and Max.

Feel better soon, Max. That certainly is a long recovery! Prayers that he heals steadily.

I'm dot familiar with this but its sounds like a long road to recovery. Hope that goes well.

Oh Sarah I´m late too...
Sending (((((((((good vibes)))))))))9 for a soon recovery to Max!
Keep us updated!

GailC - glandular fever is known as mono in the US.

I had glandular fever when I was in university - apparently it is very easily transmitted, and it really is horrible, isn't it. You will need to watch Max for depression as it can lead to that.

A for Max and you!

Thank goodness it is something he can recover from. I hope that he has a safe and comfortable healing process.

Yikes! Sorry to hear that Max is under the weather! I'm glad it wasn't what you originally thought though.
Sending lots of get well fast vibes to him.
Also sending have patience vibes for you! I know how men can be when they get sick!
Hope he gets better quickly!!!

Oh, my! Mono can be very debilitating (from what I've heard) but not life-threatening at least. I know you were terribly frightened, my sister (whom I adore) was diagnosed with colon cancer a year and a half ago and went through some aggressive therapy and surgery last summer. At the moment all is good, but every visit to the Dr. is still a cause for extreme anxiety! So I know how your heart must have jumped.

Vibes going your way ...

Just read this thread and was relieved to see the results weren't as bad as suspected.
Sending lots of get well vibes to Max.

Poor Max. Sending vibes his way.

Oh everyone has been so sweet!! Thank you so much for your well wishes.

The poor honey's immune system is all shot to pieces - he has peuritis now, which is when the body breaks out in pimple-type lumps. His face is also swollen where his glands are raised!

Plus, Kellye, you're right about the depression - he has bipolar disorder so we're keeping a very close eye on that aspect, too.

Thank you again you are all so sweet!

Thanks....I didn't know what it was either.

I had Mono when I was 12 and it was horrible. I was dizzy for weeks. I couldn't even walk without holding on to a wall. Getting out of school was kinda fun but the rest stunk! I'm praying he recovers fast!
