Epstein Barr

[GCEZ]

Epstein Barr titers over 80.  HHV-6 titers five times normal.  Sure makes life miserable.  Anyone else?

My titers were 2300+ on my most recent test. That is for the EBV Capsid IgG. I have no idea what that means. My immunologist said not to worry about it. He didn't say it in a convincing way though.

What are your symptoms ?

[susieQ1960]

The ongoing headaches and seizures have been my focus for treatment but  I have many other side issues that I battle with, as well: sleep apnea, fatigue, allergies, chronic constipation, eyelid malfunctions, blurry vision, resolved thyroid issues that were said to be caused by a virus, muscle weakness and pain, painful lymph nodes, occasional rashes, difficulty swallowing, increased thirst, chronic EBV infections, lack of stamina and concentration, and intolerance to the heat.

I do have brief windows of well being, sometimes lasting for a day or so. This doesn’t happen very often but when it does I have learned to not overdo physically because that can quickly ruin the temporary reprieve.
