@jbri thank you for your kind words. It saddens me that doctors are unwilling to consider EBV as the cause of chronic illness, especially since it appears to have such a debilitating effect on individual lives. Personally, my life has been affected significantly. I can no longer walk my dog without pushing myself, even getting clothed most days I am ashamed to say takes me great time and maximum effort. I too miss out on a great deal of social events @mrmie due to the constant fatigue. I have medical insurance and intend to go private if my GP is not compassionate upon my next consultation.
