I'm trying to think positive. I can touch my chest with my chin (I heard that conclusive meningitis prevents that!) but I have literally every other symptom. By the way, while I can touch my chest with my chin, it hurts fairly bad to do so, as the neck pain exists.
I woke up yesterday morning at 7am with a raging headache, a stiff neck and weird nausea. "Huh, allergies/sinuses", I figured. Despite taking two Ibuprofen (hadn't take any in weeks, so no tolerance was built up), the headache and stiff neck persisted! I went about my day, but felt horrible. I also have watery/runny stool, the lower part of my back hurts and my right leg hurts. I'm kinda dizzy but I was just thinking it was from the severe headache.
At about 4:30 I started to feel even worse. At about 6:30 that evening, I took another two Ibuprofen. I went back to bed at about 8:30. Still the same symptoms. It's now 4 in the morning. I can't sleep. My head is pounding all around, like a tension headache/migraine that nothing helps. The nausea persists. The neck pain whenever I move it and especially when I look down hurts like crazy. The neck pain is the back of my neck, especially to the sides, the middle and below it.
I haven't checked for a fever, per se, but my girlfriend has felt of my head and thinks I have one, as it is blistering hot. Also, I kept a blanket on me even though I'm usually hot blooded. I felt like I was freezing! Taking the blanket off gave/gives me shivers.
Please help! Any advice would be much appreciated! I don't have health insurance (U.S. health care is a joke) right now. I just want to feel better! I have a lot to do today but there's no way I can do anything feeling like this. It hurts so badly.
