Encephalitis is a sudden onset inflammation of the brain. Encephalitis with meningitis is known as meningoencephalitis. Symptoms include headache, fever, confusion, drowsiness, and fatigue. Further symptoms include seizures or convulsions, tremors, hallucinations, stroke, and memory problems.
In addition to encephalopathy, other common neurologic signs of ADEM include long tract pyramidal signs (decreased voluntary movement), acute hemiparesis (muscle weakness on one side of the body), cerebellar ataxia (decreased muscle coordination), and cranial neuropathies (damage of cranial nerves).
