The 21st anniversary of the implementation of the Family and Medical Leave Act on August 5 provides an important moment to examine how far our nation has come since President Clinton signed FMLA into law in 1993 and how far we still need to go.
April 30th, 2010. Hi, I''ve been diagnosed with mono after my doctors have looked at my mouth. I am experiencing huge swollen gums and sores on my lip and tongue. I''m wondering what I could do to reduce the irritation and pain, as I cannot eat and can barely drink anything.
Mono usually comes on over a few days. It begins with flu-like symptoms -- fever, headache, and general malaise and lethargy. After a few days, the lymph glands begin to swell, although this symptom is not noticeable in everyone.Swollen glands of the neck are especially typical of mono.Most people develop a sore throat, which can be very severe, with inflamed tonsils. A fever -- usually no higher than 104 degrees -- also can develop and may last up to three weeks.ononucleosis, often referred to as mono, is a very common viral illness. About 90% of people over 35 have been infected with it, probably during early childhood, and have antibodies to the virus in their blood.
