Patient was then treated with a single dose of IV Tocilizumab 400 mg
(4-8 mg/kg) followed by IV methylprednisolone 1g (0.5-2 mg/kg) for 5
days. Patient failed to show any improvement. Another dose of IV
Tocilizumab was repeated and methylprednisolone 1g IV was continued for
another 5 days. Patient responded very well to this treatment and her
conscious level improved and she became oriented to time place and
person. Patient was then discharged to nursing care at home and after a
