What did this man die from?

[Bakile]

He was my teacher.......

He was 30, and he suddenly crashed one day in his house, and had a strong epileptic attack (he didn't have epilepsy, and he never said he feels bad or ill before), and the hospital vehicle drove him to the local station, where they couldn't do anything for him, and said they didn't seen anything like that before (even despite that constant attack, his pulse was normal), so they sent him to the capital hospital where he fell into a coma. Then he woke up the day before he died in the hospital, couldn't speak or move but he gave signs that he recognizes his family and the environment. Tomorrow he died. It was all in a 3-4 days interval!

What was the cause of death? He was too young really Someone tipped it was some virus which attacks the central nerve system, but I doubt it......and don't know of any.

Looks to me more like some tumor. Especially as he seemed to have trouble thinking before the crash, and that day before he crashed they said he was totally non-interested for anything. He didn't even want to go to school and said "It's no use...." What do you think?

I'm sorry that your teacher died so suddenly.

It could have been a brain tumor, although they don't usually progress that fast. Or it might possibly have been an aneurism or hemorrhagic stroke. It's hard to say without more information. Are they planning an autopsy? Did they do any brain scans before he died?

Oh, it could have been an infection, too. Many viruses, including some that usually aren't very dangerous, can invade the brain and cause encephalitis. That could also explain what happened to him. No one really understanRAB why 99 people can catch a virus and be fine with 3 days in bed, and the 100th person gets encephalitis.
