Erin,
Thumbsup has given you good advice. There are some theories that the EB virus could possibly be a trigger for MS. Apparently the theory is; some people have a predisposition to MS. It lies dormant in the body. Something like a virus or bacterial infection triggers it and even after the infection is over the malfunction of the immune system (MS) stays. MS is poorly understood. No one really has the answers yet. In my opinion, you are not barking up the wrong tree. You could well have something going on there due to the CAEBV triggering other issues in your body. EBV is a bad one. Best of luck to you.
