Does this mean I could have mono?

My mom was just diagnosed with mono, and she had all the symptoms. No one in our close family has ever had mono before and I'm pretty sure my mom doesn't share saliva with strangers. She's a teacher at an elementary school, so do you think that may have something to do with it?

Thanks!
