If my ebv nuclear antigen test is high could i have had mono 3 months ago?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Epstein Barr Virus: Testing for epstein barr virus often includes 4 tests. Vca igm is the first to turn positive, followed by VCA igg, then early antigen igg, and ending with nuclear antigen igg. If the nuclear antigen antibody is positive the infection occurred at least 1 month before testing. The VCA igm typically is present for a few months after infection. The nuclear antigen igg remains positive forever.

EBV IGM less than 36. EBV nuclear antigen greater than 600. EBV IGG is 94.4. Doctor insists mono is causing my symptoms. Isnt all of this indicative of past infection rather than current or primary infection since my IGM is negative?
I've never had mono, but my doc did a test to check for the antibodies and my ebna was 5.00 which was very high. Does this mean I have chronic ebv?
False positive mono test cause? Qualitative labcorp negative, ebv latent Ab strongly positive but no acute or reactivated infection. High WBC, neutrophils, low lymphocytes. Cefixime seemed to be working, bacterial culture grew nothing. Ideas?
