4. Symptoms may be Few or Nonexistent with Standard CMV
You may not notice the symptoms that come from CMV if you are a healthy person because they may be extremely minor or may not manifest at all. However, there are a number of cold-like symptoms that some people experience. For example, fever, night sweats, fatigue, swollen glands, weight loss, reduced appetite and joint and muscle pain. However, most of these will not happen at all. When you get CMV, you may just go through life without having any symptoms or experiencing such minor symptoms that you do not even realize that you have CMV.
But you should still be aware of the symptoms that are out there so that you can get tested and be prepared for any eventuality – including having a compromised immune system at a later date with the infection still inside your body. In this case, having advanced notice is going to be a very helpful thing that will be beneficial for your health.
