Possible Meningitis

Rachel
My little guy is 5 weeks old and wasn't feeling well for a few days. Last night I took his temp and it was 100.6 so the on call dr told us to go to the ER. When we got here he didn't have a fever but they still did a million tests on him (blood work, urine analysis, chest X-ray, nasal swab, spinal tap). It was the most excruciating hour of my life watching them poke him time and time again. He ended up having white blood cells in his spinal tap which made them think he had meningitis. He was admitted and we'll be here for 48 hours while we wait for his cultures to come back.  Has anyone else had to go through any of this with their little one? What do they do if he does have meningitis?
