Where does Low Dose Naltrexone come in here, and why isn't it recommended? I think that saved my life.

I've been taking that along with Plaquenil and I think it really has helped

Really helpful talk. I guess the different groups will be infectious, non-infectious(autoimmune n neoplastic), others n unknown. A direct Metagenomics screen can help clinicians proceed for autoimmune n tat will be very helpful. Another problem in classification is the subacute form of autoimmune encephalitis. How should encephalitis be classified in this terms for a research study?

Regarding the slide on Plasmapheresis exchange where is says " 45% of IgG is intravascular vs. 75% of IgM" ,"five plasma exchanges removes 90% of the initial IgG" so does this mean plasma exchange removes IgM also ,and maybe more IgM than IgG ?

Don't forget to check for West Nile Virus when you can't find another cause of encephalitis . Especially when considering Rituxan .

So is this Unbiased "next generation" sequencing technique going to pick up all the IgGs the person was exposed to from IVIG and plasmapheresis?

My dear friend who I dated back in 1999-2000 is dealing with something she doesn't understand, and Doctors can't give her answers she needs.... she got a bacterial infection years ago then brain fog...PCOS and her head feels tight etc., she has the symptoms of Encephalitis or Meningitis....she wants a lumbar but is afraid any suggestions? I care for her more than anything ...called friendship and a bond.

How would migraine encephelopathy fit into your talk.i have Intractable migraines and I do not respond to ANY, medications.in order to have ANY quality of life I am on hydromorphone 24/7 365 yr.activity makes the pain go up so I'm restricted in what I can do.my blood pressure goes up if I'm in a pain flare and my pulse does too.my body temperature is hot and makes me sweat.i can feel the heat coming from the back of my neck and top of my head.there is no cure or treatment and it's far worse than chronic pain.

Sorry to hear that, EM can be debilitating and treatment is minimal if any good. I would first try to get hormone levels checked (T3, T4, TSH, Adrenal hormones and especially PTH) because these are triggers, also I would request plasmapherisis and IVIG. Lastly if any good try different diets.
