If you had spinal meningitis you wouldn't be able to be sitting at this computer. If the doctor felt that you truely had it or that your symptoms were bad enough he would of done a spinal tap.
You might have the symptoms, but those symptoms might be from the flu or another variety of reasons.
If you feel you need a second opinion then you definatly should get one.
The fact that the doctor didn't do a spinal tap must mean he wasn't too concerned that you have spinal meningitis.
Did you ask the doctor what he thought was wrong with you? I would guess you have a powerful flu.
Medicine is NOT an exact science. Thats why they say that Doctors pratice medicine. Meaning they could be wrong.
Please get help if you are feeling worse or if you feel you need a second opinion.

I recognise you might have often heard this countless numbers of instances, if no longer countless numbers...however telling the reality probably an alternative. In this situation, should you suppose it would smash some thing hazard you may have of having beginning manage...get the fellow to put on a condom. You might "bend the reality", with the intention to talk. Or move round it. For instance, "I consider as even though I am historic adequate and dependable adequate to have beginning manage tablets incase the desire for them arises". If your dad questions you extra, you might say that you've got a boyfriend and wish to be all set. Or, to prevent the guilt of no longer telling the complete fact within the first situation, inform yout dad that you simply probably pregnant and wish to be definite that you are no longer. Also, one day, you would wish to suppose of all of this primary and get ready distinct... will have to I say, "go out ideas"? You will have to maintain in brain that telling in fact a flawlessly possible strategy to remedy this situation. If you may have quandary telling your dad up entrance, write a letter. Better but, get ready a speech to be definite that you are announcing what you wish to mention earlier than talking together with your dad. Try to not babble, since identical to finding out for a tremendous experiment, should you've long gone over it, you'll be able to consider a LOT extra at ease. My opinion might be to quite simply inform the reality. I might get ready a speech forward of time, and browse it via till I felt optimistic, then informed my dad up entrance someday while you'll have a one-on-one speak. Remember, mum and dad are there to SUPPORT you, support you, and advisor you. Don't be afraid that should you spill the beans your dad will move right into a have compatibility. Make definite you inform him why it occurred, and what you consider on how matters will have to continue. I desire I've been handy. If you suppose you'll be able to remorse anything, do just what your middle tells you to do.
