    Hello. My Name is Hannah. I was diagnosed with EBV and CMV with current infection 2012, I was 54 at the time. Remained sick. In 2015 retested for EBV. Igm stating 36 and all off tired including EA still elevated. Remained ill. 2018 retested. Now all igm including EA have increased. EA from 72 to 600. March 2018 I had what appeared to be a gallbladder attack. Scan showed gallbladder fine. No stones thickening ect but liver slightly enlarged. Right after attack stomack near belly button ( just left of hurt) has not gone away. Upper gi showed gastritis. Colonoscopy cane back with 7 polyps 5 of which are sessile adenomas. Chron's ruled out via small bowel scan and lactulose breath test ruled out sibo. I think the virus is behind all this and no Dr will take that serious because I am considered igm negative? I need help. Sincerely, Hannah email 4676hannah@gmail.com and phone 7722406539 I live in Florida and care for elderly mother with dementia alone so can't travel far. Do you know a doctor near me that might be interested and maybe can help?

About This Project

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infects 9 out of 10 people and can lead to cancers such as Hodgkin's, Burkitt's, and AIDS-related lymphomas. This project will explore molecular structure in EBV as a potential source of its cancer-causing properties, which are not well understood currently. Additionally, this work will help in the development of new cancer drugs that can target EBV molecular structures.
