Inspite of my complaints doc did not respond to change his treatment or investigate. later doc gave maxtra which did not help. Last sat he had 103 fever and had fits that lasted for 5 to 7 sec only his eyes and hands were affected during fits we took him to hospital immediately, their nurse gave him gardinal. my baby was very drowsy, other medicines like monocef, amikasin were also given. my baby stopped breast feeding and slowly losing life. 4 dosages each of gardinal and so many other medicines were given what went wrong just for common cold and once fits how can the child die?

Hi, A simple cold can not end up like this. For correct diagnosis, I need to get investigation reports including blood count, brain imaging and CSF (fluid inside brain). Acute encephalitis is a very dangerous condition that can rapidly progress to seizure, comma and death. This may behave initially similar to simple cold. Even is diagnosed early, this condition has a very grave prognosis because of infection and swelling of brain. Antibiotics have very limited role here. Your doctor might have discussed the probable diagnosis. Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
