I'VE BEEN SUFFERING NOW FOR 4-1/2 YRS. HELP GET THIS OFF THE

MARKET. H.

I was just prescribed Levaquin for a sinus infection/bronchitis. I am a healthy 36 year old who is not currently taking any medications. I got the Leva-pac, 5 days, 750 mg. each. The first night I slept fitfully, but was still feeling the infection, so blamed it on that. The second night, however, was HORRIBLE. Although my sinus symptoms were markedly better, I literally thought I was going to have a heart attack during the night. I had severe insomnia...only slept 20 minutes total from 9 p.m. to 7 a.m., and in those 20 minutes I had a horrible nightmare/panic attack, jaring me awake with clenched teeth, profuse sweating and feeling as though I was choking. I was overly anxious, paranoid and had severe leg cramps. My heart was racing and I would alternate between being overly hot and then overly cold in a matter of minutes. It was an experience I never want to have again. My husband insisted I stop the antibiotic even though that is what you should never do with an antibiotic. Even though I have been off two days now, I am still feeling some of the effects, especially at night.

it started out as a cold and within two days it settled in my chest.i then develope this horrible cough and ended up in the emergency room.After a chest x-ray ,it was confirmed i had broncitis and i was givin Levaquin.I notice after taking the medication i feel really bad.It feels like my throat is closing up and i get this horrible taste in my mouth.I also have alot of gas and diaria.My cough is not prductive and it feels like my chest is tight.Thi medication is making me feel alot worse and i see no improvement. I was given the Leva-Pac and i have one pill left. I will never take this medication again.
