What Causes Headache,fever,joint Pain And Stiff Neck?

I have had headache for the last seven days. Fever on and off , joint pain, stiff neck, stomach cramp, nausea and diarrhea for one day. Doctors did a spinal tap and ruled out meningitis. Waiting for blood cultures for bacterial infection. Do you have any ideas.

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having acute gastro-intestinal infection mainly of bacterial infection.
Due to toxins released by bacteria there might be having stiffness of neck muscles, fatigue, tiredness giving rise all symptoms.
After reports go for one specific antibiotic medicine course for 7 days.
Take light diet and plenty of water.
Take complete rest.
Ok and take care.
