dquick,
Yes my EBV Antigen ab has been over 700 for three years. I keep expecting I would see the numbers change but they don't seem to. I was diagnosed over three years ago and my test results don't change much. I have good days and not so good days. Not as bad (bed ridden) as I was four years ago but never back to my old energetic self. MBS

Did you have any testing done on your CD8+ T-Cells? Mine are very low and there is research that indicates there is a connection with that and chronic EBV. Risks are autoimmune diseases. I know there is a connection between EBV and lymphoma risk. No connection between EBV and chronic fatigue. If the EBV is bad, only option is blood transfusion therapies and that is an area where research continues. Good luck. I feel for you.
