The thing is, a ton of people here have tests showing EBV reactivation but that is not what causes symptoms of ME/CFS. You can have this illness without ever having been exposed to EBV. High titres just reflect dysfunction of the immune system which is somehow failing to control these normally latent viruses.
The skin outbreaks may have nothing to do with shingles (could well be bacterial) but the tingling and nerve pain sensations sound totally like shingles. I've experienced it many times. Slamming back some Valtrex + cimetidine clears it right up. You do not have to have a shingles rash to have shingles.
It sounds like you have multiple infections going on at the same time. Have you been diagnosed with some kind of immune deficiency?
