Lingering Pneumonia Symptoms

2018-04-28 23:00:17
Two weeks ago I was diagnosed with mono and pneumonia. Last week I had a follow-up xray and my lungs loom better. However, I'm still exhausted (likely the mono), I have a great deal of chest pain when I fatigue, and I have fairly bad body aches. OTC meds help only a little. When can I expect the body aches to lessen? My doctor is puzzled as to why I'm still having them.
