Maureen, my mom died in 1982 from Cryptococcus neoformans, Lupus Erythematosus, and Pneumonia. She was only 22 years old, and I was only 2 years old. Is there any way to get more information into her condition and how she died within 3 weeks of getting Cryptococcus? It's like I've lived my whole life as a mystery behind why my mom passed away and I would love to be able to use her story to do something positive with it.

@@tonychan4601 Thank you so much for your feedback. My mom died before anything was actually diagnosed so she was not on any medications. Her death certificate said she had SLE for 1 year (undiagnosed with no treatment) and Cryptococcus for 3 weeks.

I was sick from the age 16-24 I went to the hospital 100s of times and they never tested me. I got so sick. My CD4 was at 12. I got down to 70lbs. They told my family I wasn’t gonna make it. I was in the hospital for 2 months had to learn to walk and everything again. I’m good now tho but I just hate the medical field don’t care about us like people want us to believe. You could see something was wrong and they always sent me home till I was like dead.

Can cryptococcus be disseminated and cause a chronic meningitis and encephalopathy or does it always cause acute symptoms once it is able to evade the immune system?
