So, lately I’ve felt tired, sleepy, had ringing in my ears, felt achy here and there and couldn’t figure out why I was having all these symptoms when my TSH was at 1.98. My doctor finally did an extended panel that included the EpsteinBarr Virus and I tested positive! It makes sense. It looks like I was exposed to this virus and the infection was reactivated bc of my thyroid problems. Just wanted to share this. There are lots of articles that explain the connection between Epstein Barr virus and hypothyroidism. Anyone else went through this?
Hi emiC, I’ve never been tested for EB virus. However, I agree with you on the connection and when I’m feeling lousy, I consider retroviruses, and take some antiviral natural supplements to kick it out.
