Answers:    A classic sign of meningitis is a stiff neck -- you won't know how to touch your chin to your chest. But I don't know if it is always present surrounded by meningitis.

A blood test can report the doctor if you have an infection right presently -- there would be increased level of certain factor that promote inflammation.

A spinal tap or lumbar puncture (LP) is a procedure where on earth they draw a little bit of the cerebrospinal fluid only just below your spinal cord. It involves a needle going into your lower stern, like a blood draw. They will look at the fluid for infectious agents -- if in that is an infection, then you do enjoy meningitis and will have to start antibiotics or anything the treatment is.
