My doctor told me on jan 1st that ive had mono for a month based on my blood test...will my spleen be okay by january 20th when i am on vacation?

Yes: some spleen enlargement would be expected if you have had infectious mono, but it seems that you didn't have the full blown picture. At any rate, avoiding contact sports for about 6 months after recovery is recommended, otherwise resume your daily life activities, best wishes
