Similar situation, our sick child was passed off by initial doctors as having something minor. We were fortunate to try a different ER where a nervous young doc took a more skeptical approach and ran down the checklist fully before correctly diagnosing with bacterial meningitis. The doctor had never even seen a meningitis case before.
Per discussions with the infectious disease specialists this timely diagnosis likely saved our child's life.
