@tress1 Welcome. I'm sorry for what you are going through. EBV can last as long as it wants to and yes it can decrease your appetite. Im not sure about the chronic question.

Most traditional doctors have no idea how to treat it. They are not taught that in med school and do not have the time (and some simply don't want to) to do any research. I did have the time to research and have learned conventional doctors are a dead end. If you'd like to learn how to treat and beat fibro, chronic fatigue syndrome, ebv, and other related illnesses, check out yourfibrodoctor.com

Read his blogs, check out his videos. He has spent years researching and helping others like us.

Don't give up on feeling better!
