What Is Autoimmune Encephalitis?
6. Weakness
Our brains are also responsible for controlling our movements, meaning patients with autoimmune encephalitis will experience difficulties with moving their body also. For example, they will sometimes perform certain movements completely involuntary, with little to no ability to stop themselves.
Some patients will also experience numbness as a result of the brain not being able to detect and process sensations as well as it usually would. Many patients will also find that they begin to lose strength in their muscles as the brain loses its ability to control those muscles. Many patients with the condition will also develop a loss of balance.
