Meningitis?

I got treated for bacterial meningitis for 13 days. However, upon day 3 after being out of the hospital, I started getting dizzy. I’ve been back to er’s, doctors, ENT’s, and still no relief. Please help. Not one doctor has helped and I feel like I’m getting worse.

Anyone discharged from the hospital after having meningitis needs to have a follow-up visit with their PCP if not a neurologist within 7-10 days. Make sure you make the appointment.

Please see a neurologist for the dizziness.
