He has laid around all week with chills, fever and body aches, no energy. Today he is complaining of right sided stiff neck, what could this be the cause of?

    Believe it or not it could be from just sleeping the wrong way or he could have pulled a muscle just by coughing or sneezing.
    Taking 800mg of Advil and using a muscle rub such as icy hot or tiger balm will help ease it, the pain can last up to a week, so continuing with the advil and muscle rubs will help you get through it.
    A heating pad will also be good but you cannot do the rubs and heating pad at the same time.

    Check on the levaquin on drugs.com, I believe it can cause RA symptoms in some people.
