Mono Or Strep Throat Or Both Posted: 02-09-07 22:23pm
I recently started experiencing symptoms
of what I thought was strep throat. My
doctor did a rapid strep which came out
negative. He also did a throat culture
and a mono spot test. My mono spot came
back positive so I thought that was it.
Three days later my throat culture came
back and it was positive for strep. They
immediately put me on antibiotics and
after a couple days im feeling almost back
to normal with no symptoms of anything.
My question is, were the results of my
mono spot false? If I did have mono,
wouldnt I still have some symptoms?
