Hello,

I contracted viral meningitis a year ago in Iraq. I'm back state-side now, and it feels as though I am experiencing exactly the same thing: sensitivity to light, moderate to severe headache and pain in my neck that limits my range of motion and then general nausea. Am I being paranoid, or is it possible to have contracted this two times in less than a year? It feels exactly the same.

I am a very cleanly person, and I would prefer to forego another spinal tap. Just curious, thanks.
