A member asked:
What does it mean to have a positive igg for both ebv and cytomegalovirus? both have normal i'm,s.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal results: Almost everybody is infected with both EBV and CMV, usuallly in childhood or as a young adult. Therefore IgG blood tests are normally positive in healthy persons. However, maybe risk of serious problems if the person with this result has a serious immune deficiency like advanced cancer, chemotherapy, AIDS, drugs after organ transplantation, etc. Discuss with doctor if any uncertainty about it.
