Some people will have little to no symptoms at all. Symptoms do not appear in any particular order.<\/p>\n<p><strong>General symptoms of Meningitis:<\/strong><br \/>\nHeadache<br \/>\nStiff neck<br \/>\nDislike of bright light<br \/>\nDifficulty supporting own weight<br \/>\nFever<br \/>\nVomiting<br \/>\nDiarrhoea<br \/>\nConfusion<br \/>\nDrowsiness<\/p>\n<p><strong>Symptoms of Septicaemia:<\/strong><br \/>\nAching limbs<br \/>\nCold hands and feet<br \/>\nRash<\/p>\n<p><strong>Symptoms in babies<\/strong><br \/>\nThe risk for babies developing meningitis is estimated to be at least 38 times higher compared to children over the age of one. This is because their immune system is much less developed.<\/p>\n<p>Bulging fontanelle<br \/>\nFast breathing<br \/>\nHigh pitched cry<br \/>\nStiff or floppy body<br \/>\nVery cold hands and feet<br \/>\nFever<br \/>\nBlotchy pale skin, even blue<br \/>\nVomiting<br \/>\nA rash<br \/>\nSleepy or hard to rouse<br \/>\nMay not want to be held or touched<\/p>\n<p>Chopsy Baby editor Jen Smith says: \u201cWe were becoming alarmed at the number of people coming to the website by Googling for the symptoms of meningitis. It&#8217;s important for parents to know what the signs and symptoms of meningitis are and not to waste precious time looking on the internet.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYoung children go downhill very quickly. Trust your parental instincts and if they tell you to do so, dial 999. Ambulances can sometimes take forever to turn up, even for serious emergencies. Time is very important.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>The tumbler test<\/strong><br \/>\nOne sign of meningococcal septicaemia is a pin prick rash which quickly develops into a purple bruising. The septicaemia rash does not fade when a glass is pressed against it.\u00a0 Once this rash appears time really is ticking down but don&#8217;t feel reassured if the rash disappears as this has been known to happen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What should I do?<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you suspect meningitis act fast. Go directly to your GP or casualty. Try to think clearly and practically. If it is rush hour you don&#8217;t want to get jammed in traffic. Though Ambulances should not be treated as a taxi service, never be afraid to dial 999 if necessary.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Steve Dayman<\/strong> of <strong>Meningitis UK<\/strong> who lost his own son to the disease, said: \u201cOur advice to parents who think their child has meningitis is to go straight to the hospital.\u00a0 It\u2019s important to act quickly because meningitis can kill in under four hours.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Parental instinct<\/strong><br \/>\nYou know your own child or baby best. Having nursed them through other more minor illnesses your instinct will tell you when something is wrong. Trust this instinct because one of the problems with meningitis is that the symptoms can be mistaken for a cold or flu.<\/p>\n<p>If you are very sure your child has meningitis but a doctor diagnoses something else, then what should you do? Steve Dayman says: \u201cMeningitis is notoriously difficult to diagnose because its initial symptoms are similar to the cold and flu.\u00a0 Unfortunately, we regularly hear about cases when children are misdiagnosed by doctors and sent home.\u00a0 We always tell parents to trust their instincts as they know their children best.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn a scenario where they are concerned about meningitis, parents need to be persistent.\u00a0 They shouldn\u2019t take no for an answer and ask for a second opinion if necessary.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf they still get sent home and there\u2019s any sign of deterioration, then they need to move fast and go straight to hospital.\u00a0 Immediate treatment with antibiotics can make the difference between life and death.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Steve Dayman lost his 14 month-old son Spencer in 1982 to meningitis and meningococcal septicaemia. He is now the chief Executive Executive of <strong>Meningitis UK<\/strong>, a national charity based in Bristol.<\/p>\n<p>The charity was established in 1999 to fund a state-of-the-art dedicated meningitis research lab at the University of Bristol. Now it is the only charity in the country dedicated to the development of a meningitis vaccine. Although a vaccination exists to protect against some strains of meningitis, there is no existing vaccine for the most common and fatal form &#8211; meningitis B. This strain accounts for 90 per cent of all meningococcal cases.<\/p>\n<p>The charity, which receives no government funding, relies on support from public donations. These are put towards supporting the latest lifesaving research and continuing to raise awareness of signs, symptoms and saving lives.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Meningitis UK <\/strong>offers the public free information packs, including a leaflet with facts and frequently asked questions. It also includes a &#8216;Check the Symptoms&#8217; fridge magnet which has been credited with saving lives.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/meningitis-uk-logo-copy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6735 aligncenter\" title=\"meningitis uk logo copy\" src=\"http:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/meningitis-uk-logo-copy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"350\" height=\"153\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/meningitis-uk-logo-copy.jpg 350w, https:\/\/chopsybaby.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/02\/meningitis-uk-logo-copy-300x131.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 350px) 100vw, 350px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- \t\t@page { margin: 2cm } \t\tP { margin-bottom: 0.21cm } \t\tA:link { so-language: zxx } -->To order your free symptoms information pack, please call 0117 373 73 73 or visit: www.meningitisUK.org<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meningitis or meningococcal disease, is the most common infectious cause of death in the UK.
