Does anyone know anything about CMV (cytomegalovirus)?

[Sunflower100]

im 34 weeks and for the past 2 weeks plus I have been feeling absolutely rotten with nausea, dizziness, fatigue, sore throat, ear ache and tingling feelings in my glands behind my ears (but not swollen glands or fever)
The GP has been mystified and is now running blood tests for glandular fever and CMV. I am terrified that it is CMV and could affect the baby and I don't get the results until next week!!
I have been googling it and scaring myself witless. Does anyone have any experience of it? Short of that can anyone hold my hand until next week which feels an eternity away.

Hi Sunflower
I don't have any experience of CMV but I know how frightening this sort of thing is. Which day next week do you get your results back?

They said Monday or Tuesday - feels like an eternity

Sunflower bumping for you and hope you are ok. These sorts of fears are awful I was wondering how you are feeling physically? Mentally I know you will be feeling very scared and vulnerable .

Thanks Prince. Im feeling pretty rough with ear ache and intermittent sore throat and tonsils and still sore (but not swollen) glands. But Im trying to do more to distract myself from focussing on the test results - but not very successfully

Princeonthemove -just wanted to let you know blood test for cmv came back negative! . Still not feeling 100% but improving rapidly esp since had results. THANK YOU for your support
