Is that a Doctor that has told you that you may have meningitis? If not you need to go to a hospital as soon as possible. Meningitis can only be diagnosed by a lumber puncture. There are other things that can cause terrible headaches but the cause needs to be investigated by doctors.

We are not medically trained on here but people who have had Meningitis themselves or are related/know someone who has. Meningitis can be life threatening. All I can advise is you go back to the health care and ask that they consider Meningitis.

Please go back to the doctor and let them know you are still having these symptoms. Insist that they take you seriously.
