hi
welcome to HCM.
read your prob, after herpes encephalitis cured , all brain functions become normal.
meanwhile if any permanent damage of brain occur, such type of prob persist.
you should get contrast MRI brain, for rule out which part of brain involved yet.
prognosis depends upon that. consult your treating doc.
