Symptom #9: Tiredness

Chronic tiredness may be a symptom of Epstein Barr Virus. Infection with the EBV leads to poor appetite at a time when the body requires high amounts of energy to fight infection in addition to maintenance of the normal body functions. This can lead to a chronic lack of energy, increased tiredness and weakness.

In this state, you may find it difficult to carry out otherwise normal physical activities. Note, however, that you cannot depend on tiredness to conclude that you have EBV. Other health conditions may also present with tiredness. For this reason, you will need to consult a healthcare professional for examination and diagnosis.
