I am trying to find where I read somewhere, either on here or in "Cure Unknown" about how patients with Lyme will test positive for EBV. I did test + last year for EBV, but would like to find that reference. Help Anyone??

ah, thanks you all. I think i get it now. I somehow had it in my dizzy head that EBV positives were really somehow not nec EBV, but Lyme showing up in that way.
I know.. I know.. I'm a goober.
At least that explains my test last year.. I thought I'd had mono as a teen, but then it showed up last year as if THAT was the "diagnosis" for my lethargy, etc.

My non-lyme specialist doc tells me EBV is one of those that's just everywhere, we've all got some here and there, with chronic immune suppression (such as with lyme), then naturally it would be more active. It's one he doesn't bother to treat specifically, but rather works on immune support generally.
