10 Symptoms of Cytomegalovirus (CMV)

Feeling Exhausted

Experiencing fatigue can be a potential symptom for individuals infected with CMV during infancy, though it is relatively uncommon. However, it is important to note that fatigue should not be automatically attributed to CMV, as there are numerous other minor ailments and severe health conditions that also exhibit this symptom. It is more probable that the fatigue is caused by one of these alternative factors rather than CMV.


The Relationship Between CMV Infection and Lack of Appetite

Many parents often express concerns about their children’s lack of appetite, particularly when it comes to the meals they prepare. Some may wonder if this could be attributed to a CMV infection. While it is possible for a CMV infection to cause a lack of appetite, it is important to note that this symptom is relatively uncommon. In most cases, the child’s aversion to certain foods or a diminished appetite can be attributed to other factors, such as simply not liking the food or consuming excessive treats.
