Could you please tell me the history for bacterial meningitis!?

Headache, stiff neck: Meningitis usually starts with headache and fever, that progresses to a stiff neck and spine. There may be associated sore throat or uri, but this does not have to be present. There may be nausea and vomiting, chills, a seizure. All of these symptoms are common, but as long as it is comfortable to look down or curl your body and hug your knees, meningitis is unlikely.
