Yeah, we don't know that it's meningitis. I just posted that because someone asked how treatable it is (if that's what he has). One thing that's confusing is Muschamp said it's a viral infection and he's on the hospital receiving antibiotics. I'm no physician, but I thought antibiotics weren't effective against viral infections. Given the suddenness of it all, and how they're already noting weight loss, being in the hospital on antibiotics, and such, I'm way past worrying about the team and am really worried about Matt. This sounds potentially very dangerous.

Excerpts from WebMD...

Meningitis is inflammation of the coverings around the brain and spinal cord. It is usually caused by an infection.


There are two main kinds of meningitis:

  • Viral meningitis is fairly common. It usually does not cause serious illness. In severe cases, it can cause prolonged fever and seizures.
  • Bacterial meningitis is not as common but is very serious. It needs to be treated right away to prevent brain damage and death.

Bacterial meningitis is treated with antibiotics in a hospital. You may also get dexamethasone. And you will be watched carefully to prevent serious problems such as hearing loss, seizures, or brain damage.

But viral meningitis is more common, and most people with this form of the illness get better in about 2 weeks. With mild cases, you may only need home treatment. Home treatment includes drinking lots of fluids and taking medicine for fever and pain.

Well, don't tell anyone. We don't want to violate HIPAA. :-)

They didnt say and it would be a HIPAA violation if they did. Last thing UF wants is that kinda drama. (Trust me. I know about those things).
