I have conditions that seem to point to the fact that I will get this soon.  I am concerned!

My sister-in-law, age 48, was diagnosed with ADEM this past November.  Her symptoms were severe headache, nausea, and in the 2 weeks prior to her diagnosis periods of confusion, incoherence, and lapsing into a coma.  A brain biopsy is what determined her diagnosis.
