[|Human|] Hello, I had the feeling of a lump in my throat and it made it hard to swallow and breath as I was scared. I went to the ER and they weren t sure what it was but took blood and did an xray. the feeling of the lump slowly moved down my windpipe and was very painful so they gave me a pain killer and also had me on an iv. the week before I broke out in hives. I did go to an allergist doctor and get tested for possible allergies. I have not yet gone to my follow up appointment with him so I don t know what I am allergic too. My main concern was what in the heck was that lump feeling. The next week I was admitted into the ER and I had Viral Spinal Meningitis. They did a lot of blood work and got spinal fluid as well. Dr said it was due to Herpes Virus. I am trying to figure out if the hives was a precursor to the meningitis. Thanks so much.

Hope this clears your query. Welcome for any further assistance. Thanks for using Chat Doctor & giving me an opportunity to assist. Wishing fine recovery. Regards dear take care.
