Hello,
After many years of searching and visiting dozen of doctors in my country, nobody can provide me with adequate diagnosis.
Here is my story:
I'm 30 years old now.
In April 2005 while it is usually warm in my country in that time, the snow has fallen and the temperature was around 0°C. I went outdoors in the morning, forgetting to take my winter hat on.
After 15 minutes of walk, when I came back home, I suddenly felt a strong weakness, that came with feeling of a “heavy” head. A few moments later I got a subfebrile temperature (37.1 - 37.4 °C) and felt chills. On the same day I went to take classes and performed my daily tasks as usual.
In the morning next day I woke up with feeling of numbness with tingling the skin on hairy part of my head as well as the back of my neck. Afterwards I’ve been experiencing the following symptoms that occurred randomly:
- headache
- slight balance disorder
- pain in spine, sometimes it happens in certain head positions
- high heartbeat rate [to be measured]
- feeling sleepy and frequent yawning
- scalp rash (appear as small painful red acnes)
- overall fatigue, eye fatigue, feeling of gritty eyes
- feeling like I’m on the edge of losing consciousness
- feeling cold in extremities
- fever up to 38.4°C (very rarely)
- hard to concentrate
- meteo-dependent
- depression
Recently got a PCR saliva test result, so the EBV is found 2.07 х 10^5 DNA copies/ml and HHV-6
4.2 х 10^3 DNA copies/ml.
I just wonder if EBV or HHV-6 can cause such symptoms?
The full Case Report is available here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/15MWuE9Rp9mpdfTzWUZ4yhyYM4r_ts2ejE-JPUBW8is8/edit?usp=sharing
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
