@oly78 No. long Covid is still not understood enough to say definitely. I present with chronic fatigue and that’s been diagnosed by my doctor. We believe it’s from the reactivation of the EBV mono that I had back in college. I have not taken a mono test. I am not contiguous. It’s not the same symptoms as I had back in college. When I had mono in the past, it lasted eight weeks and then I have been healthy for 35 years. This is a different beast. I wish it was just mono, then I would have been healthy after 2 months! It has been 5.5 YEARS! Life changing.

@julesmango Yeah, exactly why I was asking. Is it possible it is reactivated EVB? Sure. Is it definitive, the way it was written? No.
I know we’re all still searching for answers and potential therapeutics and actual solutions, so I wanted to make sure it wasn’t being presented as fact, or wanted to learn more about it if there was proof.
I know it’s difficult because we are all still working on many hypotheses and hypotheticals, but I am trying to have hope with all of the clinical trials and focused research going on. Again, it can’t come soon enough.
