Diziness symptoms and conditions

I personally have taken avelox for a sinus infection and experienced severe dizziness and disorientation as well as a very metallic taste and extreme fatigue. My sister was recently given the medication for a kidney infection. She took 5 days worth of a 10 day script. She developed tendinitis in her achillis and has been in constant pain throughout her entire body for over a week now since she discontinued the medication. Each day I keep expecting her to be at least a bit better (she's basically bed ridden from the pain) and yet each day she is not. Can anyone PLEASE tell me, if you have had a similar experience, how long did it take you to recuperate? I would like to be able to give her some hope but also I'd like to get an idea of what we are or might possibly be dealing with.

I had mine Mirena put in Nov. 2007. Pain and spotting for 6 weeks and because I was nursing - nothing until I stopped in Aug. 2008. Started spotting every other week for a few days, then in Dec and Jan had 2 heavier regular periods. Went in for yearly and it was painful as he moved it around to check it and then ever since I have spotted and had horrible back pain, bloating, gas pains. I realize after reading on here that I also have the mood swings - I am so mean and make all kinds of accusations against my husband. I also realize that this bloated tummy that I blamed 3 kids and separated abs is really from this iud. I never had this problem of bloating with my first 2 because I had not gone the Mirena route. Also, have dizziness that comes and goes. My question is has anyone else had the symptoms come on after an annual? Had gas, gas pains and back pains that have lasted 4 weeks and actually go away or do I have to take this thing out to get relief?

I have been taking Warfarin for 3 months after an Infarct Kidney. (blood clot in my kidney) was ordered to start taking Warfarin, within a week I started getting a very dry mouth like as if you would get after a good night of drinking! After about 2 months the dry mouth started to go away and is only slightly bothersome, however, now I am experiencing a light headed and a dizziness feeling, not to the point where I am gonna pass out, but very uncomfortable. I have a hard time concentrating, when I turn my head quickly to look or because I hear something is when I will experience a quick rush of dizziness. I have been taking about 7-9 mg per day depending on my INR level. Anyone have any ideas that could help me with this?

Was prescribed this 9 days ago for a sinus infection. Last night (the 9th day) I was getting ready for bed and noticed a rash on my arm. I then noticed that it was on my other arm...and then saw it on my legs, chest, abdomen, back, etc. Basically everywhere except my face (though today it has shown up slightly on my face). After noticing the rash, I took some Benadryl and went to bed. About 30 minutes later I woke up suddenly--I felt a bit woozy and dizzy. Suddenly, my legs started jerking, my body was shaking, teeth chattering etc. My husband called the doc on call, who said that the rash was definitely due to the antibiotic, and that the dizziness/lightheadedness was most likely a reaction to the Benadryl. She said the rash would probably last about 3 days, and that as long as my breathing stayed fine and my lips/tongue didn't start to tingle, I would be OK. It has now been almost 24 hours; the rash is still there and I have had chills off and on throughout the day. The doc called to check on me a few minutes ago, and told me if the rash is not improving by tomorrow (Monday), to come in to the office. She explained that she was a bit concerned that the dizziness might be low blood pressure resulting from the reaction to the sulfamethoxazole, and that it could make a person very sick. She wasn't as concerned since I hadn't experienced the dizziness again since. Scary!

I never thought about the side effects of mirena. I had mine in over 4 yrs. and now I've realized the maybe everything that I've been going through could be because of it. I've been depress, moody, in pain all over and I feel like no doctor knows what is going on with me. I have gain a lot of weight, I'm heavier now than I was at 9 months pregnant. I'm a 36 year old married mother of four, my youngest is five now. My main concern is that lately, I've been feeling this terrible pain on my upper back and neck. I feel my bones crack with every movement, they crack even when I breath. A few weeks ago I went to the doctor and she order an x-ray of my neck and it showed some deterioration of the bones. I've been so worried, even thinking that it could be cancer or something. Now after finding this website I am wondering if it could be the Mirena.

What exactly do we need for a class action suit, guys?

Side effects: Severe disorientation as if very drunk (vertigo, dizziness, feeling "out-of-body" or high), hallucinations (including feeling things crawling on me), overwhelming fatigue (as if I hadn't slept for days), muscle soreness (as if I'd exercised for hours), joint and tendon pain (especially in hands, wrists and ankles), insomnia, nausea (lost 8lbs in a few days), racing heartbeat, dehydration, ringing in ears, stomach cramps, yeast infection and spotting.

The drug immediately made me sick but I thought it was just the sinus infection, and unfortunately kept on taking it. The side effects were actually worse AFTER I stopped taking it (I got much worse before I got better).

If you're on this stuff, STOP IMMEDIATELY. If you're scared and experiencing side effects as I did, PLEASE KNOW that they are real (you're not imagining things) but they WILL go away. Listen to your body, rest as much as you can, and drink plenty (and I mean PLENTY) of fluids. Despite the nausea, eat SOMETHING (toast, bananas, applesauce).

This is a 24-hour drug, so (verified by my pharmacist) due to its half life, it takes a MINIMUM of four days to leave your system. I only started feeling non-drugged a full 7 days after I stopped taking it. The fatigue lingered (kind of like getting over the worst bout of flu EVER) but now it's slowly going away, too. This stuff was an overwhelming blow to my physical health (I've NEVER been this sick), but I'm getting better. YOU WILL, TOO!

I am a 41 year old male that has BP averaging 140/90 and spikes that were extremely hi 190/125 (which landed me in th ER). Lisinopril 10MG was prescribed last Friday. My BP came down immediately yesterday 111/75 today 109/69. That is the only good thing. I have a headache, dizziness, feel disoriented, had urges to urinate and nothing would happen. Yesterday while trying to walk, wash my trailer, or even chew a piece of gum whatever muscle I was using became soar immediately. They felt as if I had run a marathon or something. Today after one flight of stairs to get to my office I was short of breath and my leg muscles hurt. I had to go lay down at lunch because this stuff makes me so tired. It is like I have been poisoned. As I'm typing my fingers hurt and the metal taste in my mouth has me thinking I want to trash this stuff. The doctor says they haven't herd of these side effects and and they said to cut the pill in half.

I thought I was crazy, it is still coming out of my system so maybe I am! I took singulair for 7 years, after doctors told me that Theo-dur was too old school.
I have gained over 50 pounds, bad skin, bruising,diziness,insomnia and horrible temper and panic.
Every time the Dr asks me how its going with singulair I say its fine.I think I put 2 and 2 together.
After waking up with palpitations,shaking and generally freaking out I have decided to stop.I think it is still lingering in my body and I really hope this week I will feel better and not so tired.

I HAVE BEEN ON LANTUS FOR A MONTH AND A HALF. MY SISTER HAS BEEN ON IT FOR 3 OR MORE MONTHS. WE BOTH HAVE THIS SHARP PAIN ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF OUR SCOLDER BLADE. I JUST WANTED
TO KNOW IF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS THIS PROBLEM.
MANY THANKS

I started on lisinopril june 05 for high blood pressure. also, the water pill. At first diziness and light headedness were experienced. This was not more than a week. Until recently all was well. I caught bronchitis,as diagnosed by my doc, at the beginninin g of the year and have had systems off and on since. I"ve dicontinued the drug recently, but still haven't been able to shed the flu like symptom. The worst part has been a feeling in my throat that is like the inside swelling. Sometimes it was hard to swallow and even restricted normal breathing. I found I was not able to talk continuously for short periods of time just before I quit taking it. I'm looking forward to an end of these symptoms and normality again. It's been 2 days and counting since i discontinued using lisinopril. Any good news from anyone

My doctor just put me on Zocor a month agao. Both my bad and good cholesterol were high. My total cholesterol was 273. I am already thin and have a good diet so medication was the next step. I have had back pain, muscle stiffnes in my joints, especially my legs. I can hardly get out of bed in the morning. My chest on the left side hurts all the time and I feel a throbbing in my back on the left side. My doctor has done a ton of blood work and also a cat scan. Everything has came back normal. I did not have any of these symptons until I started the Zocor. I have asked my doctor to take me off of Zocor. One last thing, I have also experienced the diziness and blurred vision just for a moment.

Hello!
I'm 17 years old and active. I've been taking Yasmin for about 6 months now and I can't get rid of these TERRIBLE migraines. Headsplitting, can't think, can't work, can't focus kind of headache. Some mornings I wake up extremely disoriented and dizzy. This diziness usually stays with me throughout the day. Often, the week before my period I begin getting cramps despite still taking my active pills. However, the only positive thing I have to say is that my acne has almost cleared up entirely, something I've been struggling with since puberty.

A checkup is in order for me! I hope this helps someone else?

severe weakness, unable to read bloodpressure it is so low, blacking out, unable to lift any weight at all, heart pounding, itching, unable to lay still, involuntary twitching during the night requiring tranquilizer doses during the night, eventually during the day as well while tapering off the meds. Memory loss, loss of balance, falling down, diziness, eye pain and burning, unable to eat, severe naseau if faced with food, have lost almost 10 pounds in 3 weeks. Unfortunately it actually made my migraines go away, but I cannot live like this. Horrible side effects.

I have noticed the following side effects after taking Guaifenex PSE 600:
1) Difficulty sleeping
2) Body becomes warm
3) Diziness

Constant head aches, diorreah, Pain in legs, chronic leg cramps, Very severe depression, putting my self at saftey risks due to sever depression, diziness, feelings of "out of this world", neck pain, tierdness, insomnia, joint pain everywhere, loss of vision, loss of sex drive, loss of loving emotion for boyfriend, unreasonable fits of crying, and general feeling of crap.

This pill is dangerous!
