Hello. My wife has had mild flu like or cold symptoms for the last few days. She has had a fever and scratchy throat, with NO congestion, nausea, or diarrhea. Today she has begun coughing up mucus with varying amounts of blood in it. Swollen glands, sore throat, and pain in her neck around the area where her head connects to her backbone. Im not sure if this is the meninges or not. She's functional, but Im wondering if she needs to see a doctor.
