some viruses like mono can test negative even when you are positive just because the viral load isn't enough, negative 1 day positive tomorrow.

I actually had that happen with a mono test when I was in college. Tested negative on a Friday, though they suspected mono.. Went back Monday and tested positive.
They also thought strep was a possibility so they gave me an antibiotic. I broke out in a rash like nothing I've ever seen. Doctor said that was pretty common.
