CMV is any of several viruses in the herpes family. It rarely causes serious illness in healthy adults; however, it can lead to serious consequences, incl. blindness, in those with depressed immune systems. In newborns CMV is the most common infection and a major cause of congenital deafness; it may also induce retardation and blindness.
Since the symptoms of CMV infection resemble mononucleosis, I would suggest that you check with your son's physician.

His physician probably wouldn't talk to me about his health, and his wife would probably be offended! :) But I'll mention this program. I know he gets called from time to time to donate. He's been donating since he was 18, first through our church and later when a friend of his was badly burned in an accident.
