Help Emmy Get Medical Treatment for EBV

Donation protected
Hello my friends. In September 2023, the lymph nodes on the left side of my neck swelled out of nowhere. Soon after, my body became severely fatigued. I saw my health practitioner and she tested me for the Epstein Barr Virus (EBV). The result showed a current positive infection, and I’ve been fighting it (or something else) now for 15 months. I continue getting tested every few months, and the results continue to show a current positive infection. The Epstein Barr Virus is the most common cause of mono - it’s unclear whether this started as a mono infection.

Over the last 15 months, I’ve spent most of my time helping my body recover. I’m sleeping 9-11 hours each night, and my arms and legs are buzzing with severe fatigue. I've tried many supplements and lifestyle changes, and none of them have seemed to help.

I’ve created this GoFundMe because it’s time to seek professional help to figure out exactly what’s going on so that I can get back to streaming more on Twitch, writing and releasing music, and being active. It seems there are other things going on that are causing EBV to remain active - testing is required to get to the bottom of this.

These funds are going towards a professional doctor that specializes in healing EBV and will work to get to the root cause of this - this will cover extensive testing, doctor visits, supplements, etc. I will also be seeing a neurologist for an MRI.

Right now, I am unable to do tasks like going to the gym or moving my body for prolonged periods. Getting those things back will help me thrive in all areas. Thank you so much for your support, it means the world to me, and I will never forget you!
