I have a cheese sandwich and some juice.
What makes you think you have meningitis, and not simply a horrendous hangover/comedown?

Flu like symptoms
Stiff neck to the point that I can't move it properly and a rash on my legs that doesn't go white when you press it.

I've got a doctor's appointment for tomorrow.

What cheese is in your cheese sandwich? Is it satisfying?

No
Go to the doctors NOW

Nah, I've been like this for almost 3 weeks.
I've been to the doctors and the hospital and they said they don't think I have meningitis but the rash just came up today so hmmmmmm.

In which case fuck off
And stop clogging the internet with your vacuous guff, or something.

Go to hospital anyway. That rash is not a good sign.
Do as you're told miss.

I'm being very serious.
It could be nothing, but frankly it isn't worth waiting around to see if it is nothing, as if it's something serious you could end up very very sick indeed.

The people at hospital would much rather you went there to be checked and tested than brought into intensive care.

I guess so.
I'll have a bath so that that can actually see the rash and not the mud and then head down there.

this.
one time I phoned NHS Direct late at night with complaints of such a rash, and they sent a doctor round in a car to pick me up.

They are very good

yeah they never did work out what it was in the end though,
after keeping me in overnight and taking umpteen blood samples, they eventually concluded it was "just one of those things".

Tomorrow is not good
Phone them up, say it's an emergency, tell them the symptoms.

What they said.
Going now would be the best idea.

Page 3 would have been better
We could have seen her patchy, rashed tits.

NHS Direct will tell you if it's suspected meningitis
in which case, you need to be seen immediately

Badger's opinion is
HOSPITAL. NOW.

i'd just leave it, have a pain killer, see how you feel in a week or two

Squishy probably

Yeah, that's what I've been doing so far.

There is no cure.
