Re: Epstein Barr Virus and RA

[Guest guest]

Hi Betts, I defer to , the research guru, but there have been a lot of

articles written wondering why people with RA seem to have high titres of EBV.

The role isn't well understood but there seems to be a correlation between EBV

and RA.

I get the weird pin prick feelings in my legs when I'm laying down at night.

It's weird. Sometimes I get worried b/c my mother has MS, but my muscle

strength and coordination is good and I had a normal MRI last year. Could be

the medicines, maybe steriods?

[ ] Epstein Barr Virus and RA

Newly diagnosed with RA but GP found the EBV first. Has

anyone else had EBV prior to RA? Did your doctor think

that was the trigger factor to RA? Also how long did the

EBV last?

Also, does anyone out there experience weird pin-prick

sensations randomly over their body, especially at night?

I have not read anything about this oddity or am I unique with

this? It's as though I'm a voodoo doll.

Thanks, Betts
