Hi
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your query.
I think I can help you.
Ideally, I will need to examine you for neck stiffness.
The symptoms are however quite suggestive of a possible meningitis.
I would suggest admitting to a hospital under the care of a neurologist.
You will need to be evaluated for a CT brain/MRI brain (with contrast if possible).
This should be followed by a Lumbar puncture for opening pressure and csf analysis.
If it does turn out to be a meningitis, you will need iv Antibiotics for 7 to 10 days.
Meanwhile anti seizure medications may be needed along with antipyretics.
I have tried to make it as simple as possible.
Please feel free to ask a further clarification.

Best of luck
