A member asked:
Can a person who had a bad case of bacterial meningitis have some personality changes afterwards?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Post serious illness: Yes. Unfortunately. There is quite a lag time in healing from this kind of severe physical and emotional trauma...Especially when it affects the brain so directly.
