my father had this disease and he almost died in the intensive care, his heart stopped and then he came back to life thanks to the doctors. I'm glad I still have him with us.. If there is a god who hears me, thanks.

I have no memory of the start of this illness but was told it began with a seizure. All I can remember is coming round in hospital some while later with no knowledge of who I was or where I was. I gradually recovered and was lucky to eventually get some memory back, but life has never been the same again
I think my wife died from this, she saw several Doctors, went to RI hospital twice, where they basically said her illness was imagined, Kent County just went by what RI hospital said and sent her home next day. She had every symptom your web site mentions, she died 2 days after being sent home. At least 3 neurologist said her trouble was imagend, so I guess they would say she died from imagination

Thank you for these explainer videos
Glad you like them - thank you for watching :)
Very informative.
Thank you.👍
Thank you for watching, and for your lovely feedback Nigel!
used to have this all the time while running fevers when I was young.
I had Encephalitis when I was around 14 years old, I remember having really bad headaches, so bad I couldn't even walk. I had a couple of spinal taps and hospitalized for a while but then better.
This is the second year I’ve been going to doctors to figure out what is going on. I’ve researched multiple conditions with my symptoms and encephalitis is one of the few that doesn’t have to do with getting old (although likely could be made worse) which makes it a likely contender as I have majority of the symptoms associated with it + I’m only 18 with symptoms starting at 15.
I am definitely bringing this up to my doctor (alongside other conditions that I have more than half the symptoms of.. whether or not it affects my age group) at my next appointment so that I can do tests and either have a diagnosis or scratch off a deadly condition.
I had changes in sleep, psychosis, i would ramble a lot, confusion, i didn't know anyone at one point, hallucinations, weird tingling, headaches, and i had small seizures. They were about to send me to a ward but my pressure and tempature shot up.

I had a lot of confusion headache my family told me I would go to the backyard to go to the “bathroom”
how were you treated?
I think I had this. I was hallucinating very badly and had sense problems. Could only taste salt. Smelled orange peels. Wasn’t the kind of hallucinating acid causes but real lifelike. Was terrifying. Lasted about a week and slowly went away. Would hallucinate on and off briefly for about two weeks afterwards. Very brief episodes. It felt like I was on high dose ketamine for about four days. I live by a pond which has a high concentration of tiger mosquitoes in Florida. It happened in the summer ten years ago. No family history of mental health issues. I was 38 when it happened. Does this sound like what it was? I wasn’t on any substances at this period also.
I'm here because of the brain on fire movie
I have autoimmune encephalitis and was hospitalized for it. I had confusion and seizures.
This happened to me but thankfully I recovered in 2-3 weeks. 🙏
Did you admitted in ICU??
how did you recover?
I have been diagnosed with this. I’m in recovery mode right now. It started out with some crazy headaches now I’m showing my journey on my UA-cam channel - you can check out my journey
My symptom was sleep and headache. I believe I’m relapsing now.

Can brain inflammation cause heavy and BURNING headaches.. that find relief when I tilt my head.. basically when my head is lower than my shoulders?? I need to lay down in a “bat position “ in order to find relief … Is there a connection?

Feeling sorry for u.how u diagnosed?I mean which test,ND what are the treatments
Can you only have a headache with this? I've had a headache almost everyday now for months that vary in intensity. Also how long can it go without treatment before something happens.
Thank you for watching, and for your question Melissa. Please see your doctor about your headaches. Headaches can be caused by a wide range of factors, but should be investigated by a clinical provider to eliminate a serious cause - especially if they are regular, and impacting your quality of life.

Please seek medical attention for your seizures if you haven't done so already, jelly real shrek. If you have the opportunity to film any seizure activity you experience to show the doctors, this can help the diagnostic process.

Headache, fever and memory loss can all be symptoms of encephalitis or a number of other health concerns. Please seek urgent medical attention.

I think I have this now. But noone believes me. Sad!
Hi, please do visit our website for any information on how we can support you.
Hey do you think that there is correlation between benzos an encepyhltis ? Because when people come off benzos they experience all the exact same symptoms as encephylitis. I mean down to a t. An bensos can cause a weakened immune system also can cause nervous system damage. All correlated to encephylotis. If this was the case then people thar are On benzos for long period of time anthen come off may have drug induced encephyltis. All the symptoms are exactly the same. Also benzos can treat brain inflammation. Well then due to there addictive nature it would make sense that benzos can actually cause brain inflammation when taken off. An I beleive that many people are suffering , not from benzo withdrawal, but from benzo induced encephyltis.
Hi, we have lots ongoing research into encephalitis. This is not something we have come across. Please do visit our website for information on our research.
@@encephalitisinternational you should do research on this. More research needs to be done on what long term benzodiazepine use actually does. They know that it can cause bind , benzo induced nuerological disorder, wich is potentially linked to nueroinflamattion. Wich can also be types of encephalitis. Or encephalopathy. I'll look into your site more tho thanks for the response.
@@encephalitisinternational I'll check out your site. But more research needs done on long term benzodiazepine use. An it's potential relation between nueroinflamattion an encephalitis.
