Finding the root cause of CFS in labs?

Hello guys and gals,

I am trying to see if I can find a root cause to my Cfs looking at these labs.I use to eat gluten dairy,spend time on wifi and starting becoming sensitive to all of these around the time of working at Delta near the Atlanta airport where I unwiselyspent money seeing escorts.

Shortly after is when the PEM,gluten + dairy sensitivities,noise intolerance, epsom salt sensitivity and WiFi sensitivity began

I was brisk walking 1-2 hrs a day before
the escorts use to enjoy loud bars
and now i move around slower and try
to avoid noisy places

I think it may be a virus or viruses

Also have fungal infection on my toenails which I have a cream for.

I did some research on this forum finding which viruses are linked to Cfs and thenrequested a doctors order.After diggingup these labs from a few months ago.I asked my doctor about antivirals.

There is concern that they may negatively effect mitochondria yet the patients at Stanford improved taking antivirals that can have impact on the mitochondria so I’m kindof puzzled since antivirals can reduce Mitochondrial functioning.

He prescribed acyclovir though I am not sure if they will help with Cfs with these numbers.1g 2x a day.Since I pretty much did a self diagnosis w/the doc on what may possibly be causing the Cfs and PEM.I sense there is a pathogen inflaming the nerves can’t point to
which ones though

Dr pridgen says that HSV1 what inflames the nerves in fibro although trials are being done in Cfs and others say a combo of different viruses may be causing this.

Echo came back normal and mentioned
that because of Cfs couldn’t do stress test.

I am curious if these lab numbers can point towards a root cause?

Thank you guy and gals I do appreciate it

I wish I could help. I'm no good at interpretting lab results but it does seem like you have a lot going on. I see some high values there. I'm pretty sure that Dr Learner and possibly Dr Montoya said that acyclovir is the right treatment for EBV but I'm not sure about the HSV1 or the CMV.

Hopefully someone else will contribute more knowledge than I am able to. Does the acyclovir seem to be helping at all so far?
