Viral Meningitis and encephalitis
My brother had encephalitis and viral meningitis when he was 8 yrs old. He had learning disabilities as a after effect, but was otherwise healthy. Fast forward 35 years later and he has unexplainable symptoms of: Pain (back), fatigue, sleep, memory, balance, nausea and weight loss (110lbs) My question to you is what kind of Dr. treats the after effects of encephalitis and viral meningitis? Thank you. Your response is valued and appreciated.
