A member asked:
Is numbness in hands and feet normal for ebv positive patients?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: There are many causes for hand/foot numbness and a physician will need much more information about you and to perform a neurological exam to begin to diagnose the cause. EBV is very common. It can cause different diseases (such as mono or lymphoma). Numbness is not specific to EBV and many people have EBV that do not have numbness; so I would not suspect a direct relationship without more info
