Levels of energy can fluctuate so that a few good days/weeks may be followed by energy slumps, fatigue, and bad bouts of symptoms. Delayed fatigue is very common in these cases when exercise, excitement and / or stress brings on fatigue a few days after the event. Glandular fever relapse can occur when fatigue and bad bouts of glandular fever symptoms can strike, leaving the body struggling to get back on track again. Sometimes these bad bout take many weeks to overcome.
