Sinus Infection in the Brain
My mom was in the hospital about a year ago, with a Sinus Infection that reached her brain. She was there for a week, and they gave her two weeks worth of antibiotics, and told her to go see her neurologist. Problem is, that 2 years ago, she lost her job after being there for 12 years(corporate america), and has no Insurance. She had really messed up her motor skills (reading, speech, focusing), she has slowly but surely gotten better, she can read, with a paper under her sentence, and her speech, is 100%, her focus not so much, and her memory either. Its not horrible, but sometimes she forgets what she was going to say, and she loses her train of thought. She is fairly young (53yrs old), and before this year she was perfectly fine. The doctors at the hospital diagnosed her with "Pansinusitus". Ive tried researching it online, and there isn't much information about it, at all. At the hospital they said it's a sinus infection that was never properly taken care of, and many years later developed into this.
My question is, has anyone ever heard of this (many people find my mom's case extremely interesting, they've never heard of this happening to someone)? And, is there any form of "physical therapy" she can do? We're dying for her to see a Neurologist, but until she is able to work, she won't get insurance (we can't afford it, we barely make it each month).
Any info would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
