<s>[INST] My neighbour has spinal meningitis and I was curious about it and searched some information. After reading the 10 most common symptoms, I wondered because I have problems with my neck and back and sensitivity to light but these have been going on for years. Any comments? Thank you [/INST] HIT hank for asking to ChatDoctorI really appreciate your concern, first the term that is being used here is not the right term "Spinal meningitis" you can not just compare the symptoms of other person with your own, and then take the decision or come on conclusion for such big disease, this would create more panic, stop doing this and stop worrying this is not the spinal or meningeal problem, hope this information helps you, take care and have nice day. </s>
