I do believe my mother got mono when she was in high-school. She was diagnosed with MS a few years before she committed suicide... MS is a terrible, terrible disease. I miss my mom, and I feel like the medical world, and the doctors here failed her, as well as the American healthcare system. She could never get insurance and could barely get the help she needed. It took over 10 years for her to even be diagnosed with MS.
-
She explained what MS is. She did not explain the association between MS and EBV. Another question: Why do we need to know everything about MS before developing an effective vaccine for EBV infection?! Also let’s remember it’s not all about prevention. As wonderful as prevention is and I really hope it happens as soon as possible but an effective treatment is also very important for people that are already suffering from MS.

Finally a video on this! I got mono & my personality, fatigue, depression I’ve never been the same since mono.
-
I had Mononucleosis when I was 13. I started developing MS symptoms when I was 37.
-
Waiting for an effective treatment.
-
EBV is a rollercoaster ride
-
read the study if you want to understand the findings, they tracked the onset of EBV antibody in blood over the course of multiple blood draws, and that correlated with the appearance of markers for MS.
-
Interesting association! I look fwd to more papers on this.
-
I had glandular fever which turned into M.S. From Glandular Fever symptoms straight into vertigo and loss or strength and coordination in my legs. I have always known they were connected! Glad science is catching up. This was when i was 11! I am 28 now!

NAc and other natural meds can help here as well abit B1.

What about fibromyalgia rheumatica? I had Epstein Barr when I was 16. I seem to be developing at 70.

Oh dear God
-
955 out of 10 mils. explains the rarity of this disease. We need strong antivirals that can eradicate the virus from the body or at least therapeutic vaccines.
-
Great information.
-
Is your chances higher also if you have a low white blood cell count?
-

That's EpstEIn, EInstEIn.

Did he say multiple SLerosis? Someone should have caught that. Way to make your little segment credible.
