What Causes Left Sided Body Pain And Extreme Fatigue While Having EBV?

I was diagnosed with Epstein Barr about 2 months ago they said the number were really high. Since them I have days when I cannot stay awake sometimes days in a row. I have extreme fatigue, a terrible pain on my left side under my breast, and this week I started having pain in my shoulders down to my elbow with numbness in my hand. My hip bones also hurt. I have always been very active and slim but I have gained a ton of weight and feel terrible.

Hello,

The extreme fatigue and body pain indicate immune related effects over the body homeostasis. My guidelines at present:
- Regular monitoring of body temperature
- Analgesic as paracetamol or acetaminophen as per guidelines
- Addition of tramadol hydrochloride if the pain is not relieved with above
- Hydration care with more liquids intake
- Balanced nutritious diet to combat the immunity status
- Avoid contact sports or strenuous work
- Discuss need of any further evaluation for additional facts of concern above EBV with your physician

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
