See Us For Mononucleosis Testing In New Port Richey

See Us For Mononucleosis Testing In New Port RicheyMononucleosis is a contagious, infectious virus passed predominantly through saliva. This means you can become infected through kisses, shared drinks, silverware, or (rarely) after physical contact with an infected person who didn’t wash their hands after touching their mouth. For mononucleosis testing in New Port Richey, you can head to Polmed Primary Care and Walk-In Clinic!

The symptoms of a Mono infection include:

  • Pain when talking or swallowing
  • Swollen lymph nodes and swollen tonsils
  • Chronic fatigue, body aches, and a fever of more than 100 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Chills
  • Unexplained skin rash
  • Severe headache that persists despite medication
  • Night sweats and fever-induced insomnia

Mononucleosis is a severe infection that, if left untreated, could result in spleen enlargement. The enlargement could lead to a rupture, resulting in an immediate need for surgery. If you have sudden sharp pains in your left-upper abdomen after being diagnosed with Mono, seek medical attention immediately.

You can avoid contracting Mononucleosis by washing your hands, not kissing anyone sick, and avoiding sharing drinks or silverware with others.

How Long Does It Take to Get Over Mononucleosis?

On average, most people recover from Mono within two to four weeks. However, lingering fatigue can affect you for an additional two weeks, bringing the recovery time to four to six weeks.

Rarely, if the Mono infection is severe, recovery might take six months to a full year. The incubation period, also known as how long someone is contagious, is around four weeks before the first symptom, then several weeks after that.

We Love Our Customers!

I’ve been going to CC, a Nurse Practitioner, Denise, and Sarah, at Dr. Kaszuba’s office for a long time now. I just want to say how I love this office. I found out about the office when I took an elderly patient here for her visit. They were so welcoming, I decided to switch to them for my doctor even though I live in Pinellas Park. I’ve always received the best care here.


The team at the front office is amazing I appreciate how nice Sarah has been with helping me with my appointments. The whole team does a great job and really care. Cassie Thomas


Great staff, smooth process. Booked through Zocdoc, staff called and confirmed appointment. Visit was friendly and informative. I was looking for a Primary, this office pretty much summed my decision. Thank you Polmed!


I felt very comfortable and welcomed. Doc was very knowledgeable.looking forward to having this team guide me back to health!


I wouldn’t change doctors for anything, Dr. Kaszuba is the best! I overlook the small stuff that is irrelevant ! He goes above & beyond !Not only is he a polite gentleman, but he has nailed every condition I’ve had, proving certain specialists incorrect! He’s old school knows the body in its entirety not just generally! I hope he gets rest, though! Also, his staff are awesome they love him! It’s all a breath of fresh air especially during these times. Thank you, all!


Very professional, i highly recommend


I have been a patient of Dr Kaszuba, Ben Landry, and "Ci Ci" for 15 years. I am a retired 33-year clinican myself. I credit Dr. Kaszuba for saving my life, as he recognized my symptoms at a very early stage, intervened, and took action immediately. His staff maintains a high standard of ethics in their areas of expertise especially Sarah. And have been very considerate of my health status, relaying information and communications.I travel 2 hours one- way for my appointments because of the high quality of care.
