Suggest Treatment For Food Poisoning

Got what I believe was food poisoning 4 days ago. Day 1, diarrhea, fever of 102.6, and abdominal pain. Day 2, severe diarrhea, fever down to 100, and sore stiff neck. Day 3, no fever, more diarrhea, neck is not stiff, but it is sore, with pain that shoots onto both shoulders when I lay down. Holding food down better but feel very gassy. Most concerned about my neck and shoulder pain as out gets pretty intense when I lay down. Could I have aggravated a disk and pinched a nerve in my neck from laying in bed so much, our could it be sign off meningitis our something worse?

Hi..Every case of neck pain is not meningitis..Definitely it is not meningitis in your case..Severe headache is the prominent symptom of meningitis and the overall clinical status will be much worse than what you have mentioned..I think you need not worry. Your neck pain subsides very soon..Thank you
