Coping With Encephalitis

Last week, I developed a migraine. But, migraine pills did not help. Three hours later, the high fever, chills, and spine pain came on. I lay in agony until Tuesday. I went to the MD when the tremors began. He said I had a form of encephalitis virus and took blood. Sent me home to take aspirin. On Friday, I was better, but still not good. Fever had broke, no chills. But, headache was intense. He gave me a pain killer, it did not work. He gave me antibiotics (in case it was a tick bite) they made me vomit. Now, it is Sunday again. Still very weak. Slight headache. I would very much like to know HOW I got this. ( I also had it five years ago about the same time of the year). I have been traveling throughout my state with work meeting lots of people. Perhaps I picked it up from someone I met. I just know I don’t want this again. This bout is lasting much longer than the last.
