Hip replacement surgery symptoms and conditions

I had hip replacement surgery last August - and had the generic of Levaquin. In December I got achilles tendonitis - plus a partially torn tendon and plantar faciitis all in one foot. The heel of the other foot is hurting me also. DEFINITELY THE LEVAQUIN!!! Now my daughter just had Bariatric Bypass surgery - and the anti-biotic they gave her during the surgery was Levaquin. She is now experiencing terrible pain in her calves..and she is finding it hard to walk and do any exercise. THIS DRUG NEEDS TO BE BANNED OFF THE MARKET COMPLETELY!!!!!!!

My 63yr. old father had hip replacement surgery and was in rehab when he developed a sore throat. The doctor prescibed Levaquin and within 8 hours he was incoherent and developed a severe allergic reaction. He had to be rushed to the hospital because his tongue was so swollen he had trouble breathing. It is 30 hours later and his tongue is still swollen but not as severe and they have a tracheotomy tray nearby just in case. He has muscle pain in both arms and it hurts him if you barely touch his arm. He indicated that on a scale of 1-10, the muscle pain is a 10.
