Summary
A Reddit user in France described having active EBV in their blood, with doctors in France reluctant to prescribe antivirals. They had followed low-carb dietary advice for a month and felt slightly more energy and some weight loss. They took monthly vitamin D for deficiencies with no change, and rested as much as work allowed.
