Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My fiancé has fungal meningitis ... Is he going to be ok? He has been in ICU for almost two weeks, I see him everyday... Is he going to be ok??????? :(
Hello, meningitis is a severe disease. Fungal meningitis, the problem of your fiancé, is a rare disease and its evolution depends on the state of his organism (body). If he has another disease that makes fungal meningitis posible (cancer, inmununo supresive therapy, iads, genetic disorder of his inmunity), the pronostic depends on the severity of the former disease.
