<s>[INST] i have been diagnosed with herpes of the brainstem with focal seizures and at least 5 hospitalizations with aseptic meningitis outbreaks. have been told i'm one in a handful around the world with this type of recurring condition. can you please give me more info? [/INST] Hello!Welcome on Healthcaremagic!Your clinical situation is a quite common condition. For this reason, I recommend continuing taking antiepileptic drugs for seizures, considering the past medical history. A prolonged therapy with anti-viral (acyclovir) is necessary to prevent from infection recurrences. Hope you will find this answer helpful!Best wishes, Dr. Aida </s>
