Recently I had Encephalitis. I thought that I’m recovered totally but still I have some cognitive problems. My concentration is still poor. I still have problem with memory, I forget new information all the time. That makes me depressed and less confident very much. Could Encephalitis be blamed for my cognitive problems?
Yes, of course. Encephalitis affects the brain and nervous system and leaves profound disabilities and cognitive problems. But these problems don’t need to be permanent. You need a lot of time to recover totally. You will function more effectively, just be patient. I needed more then three years to recovery.
