A member asked:
My gf had tb meningitis a yr bck nd hs lacunar infarcts with obstructive hydrocephalus. now she is improving but slowly. can i expect a good recovery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Slow and steady: Her improvement will be slow and steady. At some point, she may reach a recovery plateau. In other words, she may not get back to 100% of her pre-meningitis baseline. Continued physical therapy, encouragement, and follow-up with specialists will help during the prolonged recovery phase. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/rehabilitation.html
