- Fever
The parenteral phase is characterized by fever, myalgia, weakness, headache, periorbital edema, eosinophilia, and increased levels of muscle enzymes such as creatine kinase. [clinlabnavigator.com]
Keywords Meningitis Familial Mediterranean Fever Bacterial Meningitis Varicella Zoster Virus Lyme Disease These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. [link.springer.com]
The classical triad pattern of meningitis (headache, neck stiffness and fever) is frequently observed in patients with EoM, but all three symptoms are not always present. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Invasive phase After 2 weeks, 91% of patients have a fever that peaks around the fourth week. This degree of fever is unique among helminthic infections. Temperatures can reach 104°F (40°C). Weakness and/or myositis occur in 82% of patients. [emedicine.medscape.com]
- Chills
The L3 larvae of Angiostrongylus spp remain infective even after 17 days of refrigeration at 5ºC and mathematical models have estimated that approximately 80 days are required to eliminate the risk of infection by chilling as the sole larvicidal method [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Epilepsy
These diseases and conditions affect the nervous system directly (sometimes with lethal consequences) and/or are associated with severe neurological sequels such as epilepsy, cognitive deficits, and sleep disruption. [books.google.com]

- Suggestibility
This group of diseases is important globally, and the experience of the last 30 years suggests that new emerging diseases are likely to bedevil us. [books.google.com]
The authors suggested that this test could be used to diagnose CA ( Caldeira et al. 2003 ). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Neurologic
- Headache
A severe headache may persist for months in patients who receive only analgesic treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The parenteral phase is characterized by fever, myalgia, weakness, headache, periorbital edema, eosinophilia, and increased levels of muscle enzymes such as creatine kinase. [clinlabnavigator.com]
Approximately 52% of patients present with headaches. Other symptoms include deafness, ocular disturbances, weakness, and monoparesis. [emedicine.medscape.com]
