Hi Adele ~

I had a bad case of mononucleosis about eight months before the onset of my first really severe depression at age 14. However, I had been mildly depressed for a long time.

I have many other factors, however. Your daughter has barely had time to recover. I wish you well, and please let me know how things are going.

best,

mary

> I am very interested to hear about this connection. My 17 year old daughter was diagnosed with MONO in December 2000. She is also ADHD. She states now that she feels like a completely different person to how she was previously, prior to the MONO diagnosis. She is just about to go into hospital for a psychological investigation...whats hard is to see what is influencing what whether "depression/anxiety" triggers the MONO or vice versa. I am also having her immune system checked for gamma globulin (spelling?). I will post the results here in case it rings a bell with anyone..This seems very complex and no doctors seem to jump on making these connections - in fact doctors only seem able to see one thing at a time..Would love to hear from others....since I am in danger of losing my daughter.. she is no longer at school and is just two credits short of graduating..
