How serve are the long-term effects of encephalitis?
When I was very young I was hospitalized due to encephalitis (or at least it was believed to be so). I barley remember anything about it and never really thought about it. Recently I started reading into more about encephalitis and learned that it could cause long-term effects associated with fatigue, emotions, learning etc.
I guess it could vary from person to person, but are these long-term effects usually very obvious and serve? Or could the affects go under the radar and maybe be more silimar to symptoms of say ADHD, and other types neurodiversity or mental disorders?
I also wonder how common they are? Is every survivor affected in a way or another, or could one be complete unaffected after the treatment?
