Hi @sfnmcashatsebv, Welcome to Connect. There are a lot of different treatments for small fiber neuropathy. The problem is finding one that helps relieve the symptoms. Here are a couple of references that may provide a connection between EBV and neuropathy.
--- Epstein-Barr Virus and Neurological Diseases: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35083281/
--- Is Epstein-Barr Virus Linked to Autoimmune Disease?: https://www.verywellhealth.com/is-epstein-barr-linked-to-autoimmune-disease-4165847.
