Help questions about mono.?!


Question: Help questions about mono!.!?
All right, long story short, I have a friend in crew, and halfway through our six mile run I became thirsty, I stopped him and asked to use his water bottle!. I air sipped about two sips from the bottle, and without touching the rim with anything, after the run he came up to me and told me he thinks he has mono, and is getting his bloodwork, is there a chance that I might get it from an air sip!? And also what is monoWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Had your friend had a drink from his water bottle before you drank from it!? If not, mono isn't an issue, read no further!.

Why would you think that avoiding contact with the rim of the bottle would keep you safe!? The contamination, if there is any, will be in the contents of the bottle, not the bottle itself!. But be wise in the future and don't share food, drink or utensils with anyone!. This is a very unsanitary practice!. You should know better!.

Relax but stay in touch with your friend!. You'll need to know if you've been exposed and his labs will tell you this!.

Infectious mononucleosis is a viral infection caused by the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and sometimes by cytomegalovirus (CMV), but it's usually EBV!. About 90% of adults carry EBV in the body and most of us have been exposed to it by the age of 10!. By & large, the virus causes no problems and we may never even know we have it in our system!. You may already have EBV and even if you don't, transmission doesn't automatically equate with infectious mono!. If you want to know more about the symptoms, run a search!. The acute symptoms usually clear up in 2-4 weeks, full recovery can take 1-2 months or more but EBV can be found in the saliva for up to 6 months or longer!. Translation: even though you feel recovered, you can still pass it on to some one else!. So be smart and be considerate!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
