==Overview==
Direct and indirect evidence of persistent viral infection long after recovery from acute illness has been found in patients with [[chronic fatigue syndrome]]. This is possibly due to the activation of microglia during the acute infection phase in such individuals. [[Electroencephalography|EEG]] may help to evaluate such patients with presumable CNS involvement.
[[Lymphadenopathy|Bilateral tender lymphadenopathy]], particularly, the posterior [[cervical lymph nodes|posterior cervical lymph nodes]] are characteristic of mononucleosis. Therefore, lymph node biopsy if done may reveal [[lymphocytosis|atypical lymphocytosis]].

Overview

Bilateral tender lymphadenopathy, particularly, the posterior posterior cervical lymph nodes are characteristic of mononucleosis. Therefore, lymph node biopsy if done may reveal atypical lymphocytosis.
