A member asked:

Mono was diagnosed 2 times in 8 months. what could be causing it to be reactivated?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Infectious Mono: Reactivation of infectious mononucleosis is not common, and would need to know how this diagnosis was established. Assuming that your statement is correct, this would relate to some deviation in your immune system, and whether this could be further defined is problematic.
