This case highlights the intricate nature of diagnosing and managing neurological symptoms caused by HT, namely seizures. Patients presenting with unexplained seizures and autoimmune thyroid illness should be mindful of the possibility of HE, an uncommon condition. Management includes the attainment of normal thyroid function and the consideration of immunosuppressive therapy for severe instances of HE.
