Several days after discharge for HSV encephalitis treatment (?Reactivated by COVID? Innocent bystander? COVID also playing a role along with something else?), she develops:
+Sudden onset of generalized seizures twice in a day, with Auditory hallucinations of cats and dogs, and worsened confusion.
These symptoms arent completely uncommon in HSV encephalitis, but a second lumbar puncture was done. CSF PCR was positive for E.Coli.
