Hello
Thank you for trusting HCM
Hello your wife need confirmation by investigations like spinal fluid analysis and mri brain. Some times minigism may present meningitis like features but supportive care is sufficient for that. Usually meningitis patients present fever, head ache, vomiting, blurring of vision and rarely seizures etc.. So please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
