Foot infection symptoms and conditions

I've taken Metronidazole three times/day for two weeks for a foot infection. The metallic taste and nausea appeared after 7 days. Now it's horrible... every single meal that I've had since I've been taking the pills now gives me nausea, so I can't eat. Today I had a cup of coffee and it has been the most horrible experience (nausea, vomit, headache). I've felt really tired, I can't work, because of the nausea and fatigue. I'm done... will not continue taking my pills any more! DO NOT DRINK COFFEE IF YOU'RE ON METRONIDAZOLE!

After taking generic Keflex for 13 days;500mg3xday; i developed a severe skin rash on legs,arms, neck,back,face,eyes,ears,and nose.Was taking med for a serious infection on top of my foot;(same foot bit by brown recluse spider in 2002).Also feel weird all over. Foot infection getting worse and DOCTOR knew i was allergic to penicillin and so did pharmacist.DON'T PLAN ON TAKING THIS MED ANYMORE!!!!! gk65.

I have been on seroquel since july 2006.I take 200 to sleep at night, although in times of stress I add 25mgs pills as needed, and I also take effexor xr 37.5 and 75.First, the good effects- the combo got rid of the crazy highs and deep dark despairs of the lows.It got rid of the compulsions,the anxiety, social phobias lessened,unbidden harming thoughts, and the ocd rituals, and delusions...So it has been a real lifesaver for me.Now, on to the side effects.
I have gone from size 12 to size 16. thats a lot! I know its the seroquel, cause and effect. I got a foot infection from trying on shoes at the outlet mall-(never again) although I have never ever had one before, and i am 55.Guess what- I am still getting flareups of infection 2 1/2 years later! And isnt that a diabetes sign? The rest of the side effects are somewhat helped by drinking water. The side pains,occasional digestive issues, dry mouth, snoring, nonexistant sex life, confusion, memory issues,and the need to consume, and consume, food, are all there.Ive been existing on samples of these meds, but samples are no longer available, and the cheapest price for my meds as above is just over $800 per month.I cant possibly pay for thisI would be happy to take something else that didnt have side effects, and cost less, but what?

I have been taking Lipitor for years; 20mg I believe. While I have been watching for side effects nothing really powerful enough struck me to believe without a doubt that it was the drug bothering me. I had already had incidents with other statins prior to the Lipitor.

Recently the bottoms of my feet became very tender, but I ignored it because I am on my feet all day and I also run. I had also noticed that the back of my thumbs felt like I was pinching a nerve because they would "snap" and then become numb and tingle like they were "asleep". Finally I realized that my feet were getting steadily worse. They felt like I had been wearing shoes too tight all day; or wearing new shoes. I would especially notice them after I had put my legs up to rest for awhile. It would always seem worse when I stood back up.

I went off the Lipitor as the likely problem. My feet have improved over a month but they are not right yet. Then of course I start to doubt the original discomfort. But I generally feel better throughout my body (including an improved libido)so I am not going back on them if I can possibly get away without the drugs.

If anybody else had the specific discomfort to their feet I would really like to know.

I went to my doctor this past Thursday because I was experiencing ringing in my ears for about a month. No other symptoms other than the ringing - and it was just quite annoying. Doc put me on Avelox and Prednisone for a sinus infection. Took the first dose Thursday and the second Friday morning. Within and hour, the back of my head and neck were so full of intense pressure and pain. I felt dizzy, unsteady, sweaty and panicky. Called the doc who said that I wouldn't react that fast, and it was probably just part of the sinus infection. Continued to take both drugs all weekend, but still felt the intense pain and pressure after taking the Avelox. Last night, woke up around midnight with severe panic attack, disorientation, pain and pressure in the back of my head and neck - Scary! I called my doc and I told him I'm not taking it anymore. I had NO symptoms when I went to see him and left with more "stuff" going on in my head now! I'm going to see an ENT now.

My 76 year old mother began taking Levaquin for a foot infection. Seven days into the course she developed severe muscle cramps and joint pain. She has been off this drug for one week and is still stiff and sore! She said imagine having lifted a 70# barrel and that is what her shoulders and arms feel like, almost like ripped tendons. Her knees and lower legs also ache and she doesn't do regular exercise (fell and broke her back some time ago) so this med does affect people who aren't exercising on a regular basis as well.
