Hi,
I have a friend who is 40 and a mother of 3. She has been ill most of the summer...Back problems...tired.

When telling me her various symptoms and back problems she pointed to the top of her back and said I even have this! I said I have that it is a Dowager's hump (I'm 34) and it is from Lyme...I said are you sure you don't have Lyme?

Her doctor tested her...probably a crappy test and is now telling her she has Mono. I have read other stories where people have said they were told they had Mono.

I was in fact tested for Mono along with the Lyme but my test came back positive and hers cam back negative...Not sure if I should push it or let it go. Or what to say for that matter? Any Advice?

Thanks,
Ann
