After three weeks of symptoms, I was finally starting to feel better. I still had an appointment with my doctor for blood work, so I decided to go anyway. Good thing I did, because I found out I have mononucleosis.
Now I know that if I run my half marathon, my spleen may explode. Great. I also lost 11 lbs. while I was sick, I’m guessing that was mostly muscle mass, because I went to the gym on Monday (before I got the result), and found that a once easy 180 lb. lift had now become a strenuous 80 lb. lift. I biked to uni yesterday and nearly had to walk my bike, as my legs were so tired.
At least there’s one activity I seem to be able to perform at length…but I just fall asleep afterward.
