Seems a few on here are dealing with active EBV along with lyme and co's. My wife is in the same boat. Curious what symptoms you attribute to EBV? Thanks.

I asked about it not long ago because I'd gotten a sore throat and my neck and trapezius areas were swollen and sore. I dealt superficially with it, and it went away after about a week, but has tried to come back a couple of times. I had Mono(about 14 years ago but post Lyme infected), caught from my daughter, and I just found out she's also had EBV, Dr. diagnosed. I knew the link between the two viruses.

The only thing I'm doing other than de-tox is Japanese Knotweed and liver support (and Kudzu too now), so I don't know what the deal is.

The only one sx I can link to EBV is Chronic Fatigue. But that is also common to Lyme, Babs and possibly other co's.

The remaining sx I still deal with are peripheral neuropathy, some brain fog, and occasional stabbing joint pain. I also have unexplained skin rashes like a blood blister only flat and painless (some say are like liver spots, or age spots) that may be Bart or BLO related; and my face is a bit flushed, with burning sensation and light peeling that I've exhausted all research without finding anything close.
