Can Severe Headache, Ear And Neck Pains And Cough Be Symptoms Of Meningitis?

I m currently staying @ a house w/filthy carpets stained from vomit & beer, I scrub & Lysol several times daily due to the filthy nature of this person. Lately my asthma & COPD has been getting worst, I have severe headaches,earaches & cough as well as severe neck pain. I know the environment is unsafe but I m homeless due to being disabled. I m currently hospitalized but w/same pains, can this be meningitis? My pains are being ignored. I m unable to pay.

Yes the classical symptoms of meningitis are fever with headache with vomiting and some patients may have even convulsions too . Earache and cough does not necessarily suggest its possibility.
