Epstein-Barr Virus
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a condition that has become widespread in the U.S. The causes of Epstein-Barr are not well understood. Some experts believe it is associated with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) based on the fact that many people with chronic fatigue syndrome have high level of EBV antibodies in their blood. Intestinal parasites are also common with people who have chronic fatigue syndrome. Epstein-Barr can reoccur at any time, especially after illness or stress.
