You had mono decades ago. So why does your body still act like it’s fighting something?
Epstein-Barr doesn’t clear like a cold. It settles into your B cells and stays dormant, often for life.
Another infection, mold, or a long stretch of stress and bad sleep can wake it back up.
Reactivation shows up as fatigue sleep doesn’t fix, brain fog, and a full-day crash after a workout or a busy weekend.
It’s been linked to ME/CFS, long COVID, MS, lupus, and autoimmune thyroiditis.
Testing is where it gets tricky. Over 90% of adults have elevated IgG from past exposure, so one positive result tells you little.
Confirming active reactivation takes a fuller antibody panel read next to your symptoms.
