Hi
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your message.
I think I can help you.

First, if there is a suspicion of listeria infection, you should definitely meet up with your doctor.

Second, as for the joint pains and neck pain, I would recommend testing x ray cervical spine and ESR.
i also want to know the exact joints that are bothering you. That will help diagnose the problem.

I have tried to make it as simple as possible. I hope that the information contained in this message will be able to help you find the best solution for your problem. Best of luck. Dr Mittal
