I wanted to mentioned one other research effort being done by the University of Utah. In 2016, U of U researchers determined that Spiralactone inhibits the production of EBV. A follow-up paper was released last year explaining how this works. Here are the links to the two studies. https://www.pnas.org/content/113/13/3609 and https://www.pnas.org/content/117/23/13044

It would be fantastic if they find a treatment for this. In the meantime with lingering fatigue, tingling and burning, months after finally testing negative for mono, rest and eating whole healthy foods seems the only answer. Monitoring stress levels is huge too. I’ve noticed any stressful incident triggers symptoms. I wonder if anyone else with chronic reactivated EBV can relate to that?
