Hi, thanks for making this! I have a few questions:

  1. Do you have any long term sequelae after this? (You mention you don't remember some stuff of your hospitalization, but, besides that is there anything else?)

  2. Do you know what virus was causative of your meningitis?

  3. Where you in the ICU? For how long? How was it? Did you have invasive stuff, like central lines or stuff like that?

  4. Do you know what your treatment was?

  5. Did you have to take any treatment after discharge to avoid passing it to others?

  6. What were the first symptoms and what was the initial diagnosis?

  7. And, finally, maybe you or some other redditor might help with this one: is it standard procedure to do lumbar punctures under CT guide in the US? I'm a med student from Colombia and here LPs are done with no guide except anatomical reference.

Again, thanks for doing this!! And I'm glad you made it through all that and have now a nice family :) :) :)

You did, thanks! I'm sorry about the sequelae. Have these or will these improve over time?

Also, I'm sorry about the tobacco bussiness that's been going against you, I guess some people don't quite grasp the individuality of health. I understand the doctor's orders you got and admire the control you have over your tobacco use

Good wishes from Colombia!
