VZV Meningoencephalitis Encephalitis Lived Experience - Annette's Story
When I developed the mother of all headaches, it was not surprising that I was discharged from A&E after a night of observation, with the diagnosis of a tension headache. They had done a CT scan and a chest X-ray but results were normal. However, they had not really taken into account the fact that I was confused, light-sensitive and vomiting. I had lost my appetite and found drinking water difficult as everything tasted revolting and made me feel even worse

Encephalitis Lived Experience - Anais' Story
I was 15, going into 4th year, and it was September so at this point school had been in commencement for about 2 weeks. The first sign of encephalitis, I only realised AFTER the entire ordeal. I was in class and suddenly I felt my body go still - I felt a wave of nausea hit me full force, my hands were shaking and I couldn’t move. I remember thinking “I need to leave, what is happening?” but I couldn’t speak - it was like I had gone catatonic.

Encephalitis Lived Experience - Amy's Story
I was finally given a diagnosis and treatment was commenced. I was sent for a PET scan to check for tumours/cancer which thankfully came back normal. I had a central-line inserted, and I was administered several rounds of high dose steroids, and started on monthly cycles of plasmapheresis as an out-patient. I am on monthly intravenous immunoglobulin, and immune-suppressing tablets which I take daily. I've also had Rituximab infusions.

It's a shock to be this ill. It changes your perception, your place in your own life, your relationship to others. Perhaps you feel cast adrift by the virus whose greatest threat is past; you’ve survived; but you feel physically and emotionally exhausted. You may not be able to get up or down stairs. You may not be able to get out of bed at all.
