I was wondering if anyone knows anything about viral meningitis??? I had a friend who had it last year really bad, got it at the hospital while she was there with her daughter(got it also) who was having a baby at the time. Anyhow last week I was really sick I had the worst headache I have ever had, slight fever, dizzy and the light of any kind hurt my eyes. On the worst day I didn't call the Doc because there was no way I could drive myself there. Second day headache a little better still have a temp, eyes better. Day 3 go to the Dr he thinks I have a migraine I have never had one, headache much better, but now I am nauseated, temp just above 99.I also could not sleep for about 4 days I would go to bed at night and sleep maybe an hour or less and wake up and stay awake like I had gotten a full nights sleep. Go for CT scan comes back negative. When I called my friend she said that is how she felt but had all the symptoms at once. This bothers me and the Dr wasn't real worried because my temp wasn't real high. He was afraid of migraines or something worse. The headache hurt so bad i wanted to cry. Has anybody had this? The Dr said it was not the flu because I had no flu symptoms no aches no chills no cough no runny nose nothing. Any ideas??? I am feeling like I have never been sick today aside from being a bit tired.
