Answer 1

yes call for an appointment! how can you even ask such a question you need to see a doctor and be told what kind of medication to take and what to eat and even to know exactly whats wrong with you

hope u get better

Answer 2

Test for meningitis:  Bend your chin down to your stomach, if you have bad pain it's meningitis...go to ER.  You will not die, you will be treated.

Otherwise, it sounds like you have the beginnings of the flu.  Cold sweat usually goes along with fever.

2 Aleve or Advil every 4-6 hours to reduce fever & pain & aches.

Rest.

Lots of fluids except milk.

Tea with lemon.

Vit.C 2000mg. every 2-3 hours for 2-3 days.

Zinc 50mg

To really boost your immune system:  Astragalus; Goldenseal root (not more than 5 days in a row).

Feel better & don't worry.

Answer 5

Sounds like the flu to me. Check your temperature, watch what you eat so you don't throw up, lots of liquids including Gatorade for the electrolytes and plenty of water if you feel like drinking it. Tea helps an upset stomach also. Tylenol if the headache comes back or if you have a fever. Doesn't sound like meningitis just hypochondria. Relax, take a nice soak in the tub to relax you. You are fine, just sounds like the flu, the shaking hands are from your fear, once you quit worrying and relax it will stop. It is normal to be hot one minute then cold the next with the flu. Aching muscles (legs) anywhere is normal with the flu also. YOU ARE NOT DYING!!!!!!
