Go and let the Doctors test you for anything and everything they can. Be safe.
Reply:it is also common in those with hepatitis-commonly known as inflamation of the liver. mono as well as other diseases could cause this.





to double check, i'd ask the doctor to test you for hepatitis b or c. many who have recent infection can be misdiagnosed with the flu or mono and actually have something like hepatitis c.





always test for antibodies-alt and ast levels can appear normal and you can still be infected!





good luck!
Reply:The low number of white blood cells and the protein at 7,17 is because of the sickness you had. When your body fights an infection you get a sore throat resulting in the number of the white blood cells or leukocytes you have.
