Doctor prescribed him medicine for 3 years for the seizures it was his first seizure then on this Saturday Night he got fever and headache. The fever was very hight and continued to next day on sunday he took and medicine and he got relief from his fever and headache then suddenly he had neck pain and headache fever again on sunday night. Monday he visited to the doctor the doc admired him and did his lumbur puncture. The reports are yet to come but the doc said he has signs of brain infection.

His LP is normal now doctors suggested him to go for a EEG and MRI.
what do u think now why doctors are doing this and still he have fever and neck pain I guess neck pain is due to LP but no other thing is happening to him like rashes etc but yes he said that he doesn't remember few thinks and I talked to him he is fine in talking and does not have nay speaking or photophobia.
Hi, my son had a slow build up to bacterial meningitis. It started with an intense and persistent headache accompanied by a stiff neck, hearing loss, sickness and light sensitivity. The LP showed infection, meningitis wasn’t diagnosed for a further 3 days. However, he was lucky as he was put on the right meds from the start of his admission; that decision saved his life. He didn’t get the rash either. The LP is the only way they can differentiate between viral and bacterial. Hospital is the only place to be in that situation. I wish your friend well, it’s a scary time...
Hello My friend don't have any problems with light or anything he is fine with it and don't have may memory loss or hearing loss problem but now doctors have Done his EEG and MRI for further evaluation.
Still m worried bout him Why they have gone for EEG and MRI Now
