EBV - Reactivation / Chronic EBV
Hi, My son (17) just got diagnosed with reactive / chronic EBV he is an athlete with dreams of playing in college. He is really struggling, and we cannot find a doctor to help him. This is his test results.
EBV VCA IgG (U/ML)
>750.0
Comments: Above high normal
EBV VCA IgM (U/ML)
< 0.0
EPSTEIN-BARR EARLY AG IgG (U/ML)
20.1
Comments: Above high normal
EPSTEIN-BARR NUCLEAR AG IgG (U/ML)
>600.0
Comments: Above high normal
His DNA PCR was negative.
He is resting and eating healthy with some supplements - a little worried to just start giving him a ton of stuff though. He is 3 months ( or longer) into this reactivation and just getting worse. He had mono in early 2022 and covid / Vaccine.
Worried this is progressing. We are willing to travel just need to find help!
Thanks!

How is your daughter doing? What symptoms does she get and how does she manage them?
