Can someone help me w EBV symptoms?

Im very new to EBV diagnosed the other day.
Can someone please compare symptoms w me as i cannot seem to fond much help thru google searches or internet help web sites.

Im fine in the morning for the most part.
Midday i get suddenly weak  fatigue WITH nausea
feeling and bronchial tubes like theyre closing.
If i dont lay down quickly as this comes on fast, i get tremors
Sudden sweats too but i knw thats a symptom


Anyone else get tremors n nausea or dizzzy if when the fatigue comes on an u dont rest?

I hav a stressful job that can be nonstop w some doubles. Im told that i need a lot of rest
But if i keep woking, will that just aggravate this problem and not allow me to feel better at some point?

I take centrum multi vitamins. But thinking abt takin an extra supplement vit B12 too  

Any response is appreciated as i knw nothing abt this virus. Thx

I posted this on another thread but ill put it here. I have chronic EBV and my levels last I checked were off the charts. I have swollen lymph nodes under my armpits and ears. It's been a rough road but I have found exercise has helped me tremendously. I really only feel the nodes really swell up and the fatigue kicks in heavy if I don't exercise for a few weeks.

Thank youuuu

This is exactly like what im going thru. Even the midday naps that I needed.
The chest issues are similar. .. I explain it as a burning/cold sensation at the same time.

I started feeling horrible in November, finally found it to be EB in early Jan.
as the horrible fatigue seems to be a little better, the midday sudden nausea is worse. Chest issues sre now minimal too.  But my appetite is strange thru out the day.  The nausea is scary as its so sudden and bad that Im not sure if i should run to the bathroom.  And if I dont lay down as soon as in feelinf symptoms then Ill get horrible tremors.

My symptoms:  nausea (no vomiting), lack of appetite, fatigue ranging from being tired to barely functioning, lightheadedness (no dizziness or vertigo).  My symptoms started in Oct-12.  Finally, got it figured out in Dec-12 but went through a lot of tests that could have been avoided.  I am trying to get as much rest as possible.  Earlier to bed, etc.  

I am also taking multi-vitamins now.  My fourth month of this was much better.  Almost felt like a normal person, but a late night meeting can knock me out the next day...still.  A bit frustrating, but hoping it just runs its course.  

I had several episodes of major fatigue about mid-morning that lasted several hours.  The worst of these forced me to go home and just lay down and let it pass.  Could barely think.  I missed several days of work at the height of my EBV issues.  Regarding chest issues, I would also feel, hard to describe, cold like symptoms in my chest.
