What is interesting is that chronic EBV leads to a HOST of other health issues. This includes cancers and neurological conditions like MS... which also ... dun dun dun ... cause sleep apnea. God, this is so frustrating. I’m sorry. I don’t usually talk like this, but I’m so tired of riding the merry-go-round with “doctors” and “specialists” and quacky “naturopaths.” 🤯 I’m all for them being my partners in health but not my money and time thieves... I’ve only found one person I would call my true partner in health. God bless her.
Couldn’t figure out how to add an image. If you scroll down in this article you will find a chart on causes of apnea, one of them being ... dun dun dun ... chronic infections including EBV. Here’s the link. https://www.cedars-sinai.edu/Patients/Health-Conditions/Sleep-Apnea.aspx
I was hoping there’d be more information here. Janet, have you been able to find answers to your questions? I’m a relatively young thin female with sleep apnea and a host of undiagnosed health problems. Some things I do know is that I have chronic EBV and swollen LN, CFS, and thyroid cysts. I too wonder if my apnea is due to said problems. Please let me know if you would like to get in touch and if you’ve discovered anything new.
Just FYI, I’m a quick search I came across this. So I think you’re on the right track and may need to discuss this further with your doctor. What I’m wanting to know is if it’s possible to heal oneself with appropriate treatment to the point of no longer having sleep apnea ... IF swollen lymph nodes are the main cause. Ugh can’t figute out how to insert image. I will add a new post and try to include attachment or web address.
