aseptic meningitis
      #64057 - 04/20/03 09:16 PM


Hello I had sex with a female sex worker 2 weeks ago, it was protected sex but when i pulled out I didn't hold on to the base of the condom and it stayed up in side of her.

I have had bad headaches the last 5 days or so and I am really stressed. Does aseptic menigitis present itself as headaches only, as my entire head hurts and it seems to run down my neck, I have had no other symptoms

please help i i am so scared

please

Anybody with that type of headache should head in to see their doctor to find the cause. Sounds like a migrane. Of course with it running down your neck it might be horrible stress headaches. Anyway only a doctor can tell you why you have them, we can't.

Not sure why you picked aseptic meningitis to worry about. Since this seems to have some connection with the sex worker 2 weeks ago, I have a feeling you saw something relating to HIV and aseptic meningitis and with your headache figured that must be it. The problem with that line of thinking is that Aseptic Meningitis is a Neurologic disorders that is an indicator of AIDS. That's AIDS, not recent HIV infection.

Aseptic meningitis is not what you are thinking. Aseptic means that you have a bacterial infection that has spread to your bloodstream. There are differen't types of bacteria that cause meningitis. I am taking microbiology and have studied this
By the way, just wanted to say hello to everyone, it's been a while. I am trying to get into nursing school, I got divorced also and have never been happier!!!

I have read that one can have meningitis like symptoms during ars, that is what has me concerned I my only smymptoms thus far strong headache which seems to run across my head down my neck that is what concerned me. Anyways I am just very anxious thank you for you thoughts. I had sex with a condom but the condom came off as she rolled off of me (she was on top). So I am concerned that I may have been exposed to her fluids, no oral sex or kiss was involved. thanks and thoughts would be helpful
