Bickerstaff Brainstem Encephalitis - Rebecca's Story

I spent the next day in bed, barely able to walk without intense feelings of vertigo - my vision was blurred, balance was off, and I felt incredibly nauseous. I was wheeled off to the hospital in an ambulance at around 1 am and can remember lying in hospital very scared and ill, with lots of beeping and voices all around me. My vision seemed to fade at one point, and after that, everything is entirely blank. My only rather frustrating memory is being told to ‘walk it off’; luckily, my family were able to flag down a lovely nurse who saw how ill I was before taking me to the ICU. There was much worry about a tropical disease causing my symptoms, hence the speed of my admission to the intensive care unit.

Autoimmune Encephalitis Lived Experience - Philippa's Story

It was terrifying. The uncertainty, the not knowing what each day would bring, was one of the hardest parts. He spent six long months in hospital, followed by a further eight months in a rehabilitation centre. Those fourteen months were filled with fear, exhaustion, hope, and small victories that meant the world to us. Our story is still continuing and if I’m honest, it’s been nothing short of a rollercoaster.

Autoimmune Encephalitis - Anti-NMDAR - Alex's Story

I received a call from Alex complaining that she had something buzzing in her ear and that it is making her uncomfortable. On the same day in the afternoon, I received a call from my sister telling me that Alex had collapsed and she was brought to the nearest hospital. When she woke up, the hospital staff, without proper diagnosis, wrongly accused her of taking prohibited drugs just because she was shouting, hallucinating and was very disoriented.
