EBV worried
I have had an EBV test about 9 months ago i tested positive for it and the antigen as well as all the antibodies relating to EBV including IGG , IGM etc.
I did other tests like several HIV tests of different kinds , Hepatitis C and B tests and even VDRL tests.
All negative and non reactive apart from the EBV test.
It has been 10 months now and i feel the same - very fatigued , hot flushes from inside (i am a male of age 18 ),low grade fever for quite sometime , had a slightly enlarged liver- border line but no pain at all.
And also had a swollen glad under my ear which has dissappeared about 2-3 months ago although it lasted for over 4 months and it could well be due to my teeth as i had a root canal done at that time.
But i still face the following symptoms - fatigue , low grade fever , and disability to concentrate.
Are these all symptoms of EBV ? And how long does it last ?
I begal feeling the symptoms in 2010 march end , but my last time i had saliva exchange with a girl was in december 2009 so how is it possible ?

I think I already answered this question in a PM, but this does sound very much like EBV. Add to it the fact that you tested positive for it too, and I'm pretty sure that's what you're dealing with. EBV lasts different lengths of times for different people and depends on a lot of factors, so it's impossible to say how long it will last for you (Sorry!).
