I wonder if they'll ever find out how people have MS.. kinda like will they ever truly find out about Autism?

EBV (Epstein Barr Virus, virus that causes mononucleosis) stays in your system...inactive, I believe. When I was getting all my fancy blood tests to see what could have been causing my problems, my EBV titer came back positive. It had been 10yrs since I had mono.

I also think that I never fully recovered from the mononucleosis. I've just never felt the same since then. I would not be surprised if when they figure out exactly what causes MS, that mono would be the culprit. I think it's a combination of genetics and the mono that triggers it.
