I am sorry for whatever u have gone through. It must be a tough time for you as a mother if your kid gets sick. The key here is to stay vigilant and look for signs for abnormal behaviour and irritability. And don’t worry about what might happen. Just do the regular follow ups as advised by the treating doctor.
Next Steps
If the child had convulsion during that time and presently on anti convulsion then get the EEG done so we can monitor the brain activity
Health Tips
Kindly do regular follow up so we can catch the problem even before it arrives. I hope it helps. For any query consult me so we discuss the further course of action . All the best and be positive
