3. Headache
People have headaches for a variety of reasons. You may be going through a stressful situation. You may be having a cold. It may be a sinus-related migraine. Women also experience a headache when the menstrual cycle triggers.
However, it’s a little-known fact that millions of people suffer persistent headaches because of Epstein Barr Virus. EBV inflames your central nervous system, attacking the vagus nerve, which is the cause of migraines. People reportedly experience prolonged unbearable headaches that interfere with their daily chores.
If this is the case for you, work closely with your doctor to find ways to strengthen your immune system so that EBV reactivation occurs less and less. The level of stress in your environment could be a trigger for another episode of migraine. When you are stressed or depressed, your immune system gets weakened, which gives an opportunity for the EBV to win ground and reactivate within the body.
