Mono for a 3rd time

How did you know you had EBV reactivation?? I had mono in 2018 for the first time and ended up in the hospital with organ inflammation. I had it for the 2nd time a few years ago, not as bad as the first time but still comes with awful flu like symptoms. I’m sick currently and went to urgent care yesterday, tested negative for all the typical viruses but I didn’t think to have them test for mono because I didn’t have a fever yet (I did get one later in the day) so the doctor thought it was just allergies, but it feels exactly like the last time I had mono symptom wise so I’m pretty positive I have it again. The weirdest thing is I shared a drink this past weekend with my friend who I know for a fact I got mono from the first time, coincidence or not I have no idea. Is there a way to prevent this from reactivating and also is is super easily passed on to others? I share drinks with my toddler daughter we sleep together, etc. I’m terrified of her getting it now.

I am curious, those who have taken trazodone before for your insomnia what were your withdrawal symptoms when you stopped? My insomnia got really bad again when I stopped taking my Zoloft, so long story short I started it again and got prescribed trazodone to help me at night while my Zoloft kicked in again. I took it almost every night for a month I would say. This past week or so I’ve been sleeping much better again so not taking the trazodone but I’ve been getting awful headaches and neck pain almost every day. I’m also sleeping TOO good like I’m exhausted knocking out at night, which we all know is 1000x better than not sleeping so I’m not mad about that but I’m just wondering if anyone has experienced these type symptoms while being on trazodone as needed for sleep.
