Me Either vs. Me Neither

If one writes "I don't, either," does that mean it should be "me either," or should it be "me neither"? And should there be a comma there after "me" to be consistent?

Thanks.

Neither is truly proper English, of course, but me, either sounds "less correct" to me, and it doesn't exactly roll off the tongue. Most people wouldn't use a comma there, but I would, just as I would in a complete sentence ( I don't, either ).
