Hello,
Does she suffer from any medical condition like diabetes etc which is keeping her immunity low.
If yes then you should take care of that , then the viral infection will improve.
In her case i suppose there is in addition bacterial infection also as the viral infections do not take this long like 14 months is a long period.
Have you taken antibiotics and steroid medicines.
Development of Double vision is to be taken seriously and reason should be sought for .You should get done a recent MRI scan and consult a ENT specialist.
In doubt do reply.
