My first time reading this.
  I’m trying to date back my past dates.

thanks
didn't know this
good to know I don't have MS because of the many weird and wonderful reasons I and others make up!

Bit surprised it's well known and years old data that EBV is the likely cause. Plus it's favoured environment of hanging out in memory B cells teaching them bad habits has not been better researched..

Important to post this stuff for the less well informed like me - thanks again

Hi @jamoranto; it's always been known that most people with MS have traces of the EB virus, but this evidence is much more compelling. I did a straw poll on here some while back to see which MSers had had glandular fever (a similar virus) and lots had, myself included. Let's watch and wait.....

This is one of many articles I've seen like this, I have checked with my parents and I have never had any of the viruses they mention.. I’m not sure what to make of them to honest x

@shaz76 the only way way of knowing you've been exposed to EBV is a blood test. Many are exposed and don't develop gf/mono or any symptoms at all.  This new study has certainly piqued my attention because of the sample size (10 million!)

@novemberrain , thank you, I shall ask my neurologist or nurse when I see them, I thought it was something you’d of know about, still leaning the life ifMS 😏💜
