Mononucleosis and "SF Baby" pipeline

[Praxis]

Hello All,
I searched everywhere for something resembling this topic but could not find anything.

I am scheduled to ship for the Rep-63 route in July. Long story short: I wound up in the hospital last weekend and have Mono. Needless to say, this is distressing. I know that Mono can take 6-8 weeks to disappear and pushing yourself before your body is ready can cause relapse. The first symptoms presented themselves a couple of weeks ago and has made training properly impossible.

I spoke to my recruiter who said that if I was still physically ill very close to the ship date we could push it back, but he did not seem eager to do this. My worry is that I am unable to prepare properly at all over the next month or two and show up for the pipeline essentially "off the couch." He tried to reassure me, saying that I would have plenty of time at Benning to get back into shape during the initial schools and SFPC. It is worth noting that he is not an SF recruiter. I was in decent shape prior to falling ill; I could max out an APFT and was working mostly on toughening my feet through rucking.

Has anyone had experience with a situation like this? Does anyone know of a possible way to push my date back to have more time to train up? Or do individuals who have been through the course think it is possible to rebuild through the schools? I am not one who feels comfortable tackling life goals without examining everything within my locus of control.

Thanks in advance,
Pete
