Dec 07 began to have medical problems such as Chest Pain, Ab Pain, Lightheadness, Minor ab pains, Tired, numbing in the back of the head, Brain Freeze, Etc.  No prior medical issue not even a primary Doc.  Have had many test to include the following.  Heart CT/ECHO-Colonscopy/Endoscopy-MRI X 2 C-Spine and Brain-Chest X-Ray (2)- Tons of blood work to include Hep Panel, CBC (2) Chem 7/14  Vit D (low) B-12 Low normal ( got shots for all of this) Extra Lymph blood test the abosulte and HIV testing H.Pylori etc.  The only thing the results have shown is back in Jan and again last month my EBV numbers were high, Both my Primary and Infectious Disease Doc say this is not a problem and it will work itself out. ALL the testing and 2 primary Docs and a Infectious Disease Doc and Gastro. Still nothing Finally set up with a Nuero he did the standard testing noted peripheral auditory delay on left with central delay  (left ear nerve damage) which he said could have been due to the early round of EBV, RX me Topamax and would see me in 30days, however my tingling and numbness increased in my legs and ankle area and he has decided to do MRI with/without contrast to compare with the one in May(without contrast that he did not do)  also came back normal--Had LP came back with one band but nrgative for all other test to include Lyme. My only symptoms that are still in affect are Lightheaded and numbing from the head,And some minor body tingling, Occasional groin pain and left arm pit node a Little sore.  Minor ab and chest pains,  Can this still be left over from EBV (almost two years now)  Any thoughts or suggestions would be helpful sorry so long.
