By 'brain fever' do you mean that you are still in hospital being treated for Meningitis? Are you experiencing sub clinical fits due to the inflammation and infection in your brain? Having seizures would not stop a brain recovering from infection because it would be the other way around that the seizures would lesson if they are caused by infection in the brain. The infection would resolve when treated with the correct antibiotics or antivirals depending on the type of infection. Or are you already diagnosed as an epileptic and illness has made that worse?? Could you perhaps explain a bit more about what is happening because it is difficult to know quite how to answer?

Thanks Kelpie for expressing your concern as you had realized I haven't been so active with responses. Everything's taken a major nose dive in my home life and I've been struggling to manage and not coping so have had no capacity to be active on the forum. Still in the thick of it all but when I get out the other side I will post more replies again. x
