Its not an easy diagnosis in most, and would imagine it is even harder in an athlete playing as many minutes as Mason was playing. The more scary thing is the fact that without the diagnosis and him playing a contact sport is the fact that he could have easily had serious complication (ruptured spleen). So more important that they diagnosed it and imaged him to rule this possibility out. That is what made me more nervous about the diagnosis than missing it for a month.soultrainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14355990792545534671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-40964800125564173742009-02-02T20:48:00.000-05:002009-02-02T20:48:00.000-05:00You guys convinced me to do a little more reseach ...You guys convinced me to do a little more reseach on this and it looks like I was overly harsh on the Jackets medical staff.<BR/><BR/>I know the Bruins Phil Kessel was out with something similar...and it looks like it took them more than a few weeks to diagnose him correctly as well:<BR/><BR/>Kessel apparently knew he was sick well before he was put on the shelf.<BR/><BR/>“I thought I had it for a while before,” he said. “I went in probably like a month before and they said no, but I knew I had it.

Must be a comment on the age of the team, eh? Chicken-pox next?<BR/><BR/>Secondly, professional athletes are not the most candid folks when discussing injuries or illnesses. Tough to diagnose something like mono with a kid who is probably saying he is fine. <BR/><BR/>--JAL<BR/><A HREF="http://ashotfromthepoint.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">A Shot From The Point</A>JALhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08835724079409133700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-57430878013023162402009-02-02T17:32:00.000-05:002009-02-02T17:32:00.000-05:00Unfortunately its not that easy with Mono.

Also if you test to soon then you can miss the diagnosis because it takes awhile for the test to become positive (antibodies and such, not important). So not really that surprising that it might have taken 3-4 weeks to figure it out.soultrainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14355990792545534671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2942323299745921789.post-46796158373043519542009-02-02T17:17:00.000-05:002009-02-02T17:17:00.000-05:00You'd think if a player feel sick for any amount o...You'd think if a player feel sick for any amount of time, the team would send him to see the docs.
