Migraines linked to B meningitis?
when I was 5 I had bacterial meningitis and ever since I have suffered from bad headaches and migraines I am now 16 and they are getting worse. I have also been passing out recently. I was wondering if they could be linked to the illness in anyway? Does meningitis have after effects?

Never diagnosed but 99.9% sure I had viral meningitis
I got sick on St. Patrick's Day, March 17th, 2016. I had a headache during the day (and I hardly get headaches). At night my neck felt stiff and I tried to go to sleep. I awoke with a severe heart palpitation that took my breath away for a second. I went online and searched my symptoms since it alarmed

Almost two months ago, my father experienced low blood pressure, tremors, night sweats, fatigue, and a low grade fever. Initially, the doctors assumed

Pregnancy after viral meningitis
Hi there, I was diagnosed with viral meningitis on 17th January of this year.

Newborn with aseptic meningitis
Hi. My newborn was diagnosed with meningitis on day 5. He was treated for 7 days and watched closely in the hospital. He had nothing abnormal in his blood or urine. His LP showed elevated levels of white blood in the 500's. Nothing ever grew from his cultures and they said he had aseptic meningitis.

Recovering from viral meningitis
I was diagnosed with viral meningitis in August. I was not given any information on the illness just discharged from hospital and told to rest. Now every few days I get most or some of the symptoms back which I find very distressing as it feels like I'm getting sick all over again. I now suffer from
