Given the lad was hospitalised for almost a week is that the low end, moderate or high end?
How long before contact sports can be resumed, I had heard/read it is up to four weeks after the spleen returns to it's original size?
Has it been reported which strain he has, aren't there two main variants, one relatively mild the other not so much?
Is there a relationship or link between Glandular Fever and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?
