    A quick Google brings up "kissing disease"!!! Lucky you!

    Looks more of a nuisance than terminal. Frustrating though I bet if it is making you feel lethagic.

    Hope you're feeling better soon.

    EBV can cause GF but not all the time so yep, rest if you are feeling knackered. The races will always be there. Trust me, you do not want Glandular Fever. It doesn't matter how fit or healthy you are, it'll bring you down and the only treatment is rest and lots of it. Also, once you've had it, you get paranoid about your immuue system and about every little virus that comes along. Good luck!

    Em, your hair looks lovely every time I see it now

    Glandular fever is what the horwich coach is worried about and has ordered me to do no more than 40-50 miles per week I'm going to be sooooo bored for the next 4 weeks !
