My 12 yr old daughter was taken by ambulance with meningitis. ..what do i do now?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Be present: Chances are that the infection will respond to medications and she will have a satisfactory recovery, but return to normal after infection is gone may take several weeks. Some cases may infect family members, so get advice regarding possible inoculations. Also, have daily family conferences with the medical team regarding her status.
