Will a person who has not lost memory but cannot simply reason psychological as a result of TB meningitis recover?

My mom has been diagnosed with TB miningitis for a month now, she was in hospital for 3weeks after the diagnosis, she was in severe pain and as a result she is now acting like a mad person, of all the stories I read they talk about memory loss but in the case of my mom she can still remember all of us, but she looks a bit crazy, talks all the time, wants to leave and sometimes hurts people who are on her way when she wants to leave..

My question is will she ever recover to her normal state?
