Lumps under the skin symptoms and conditions

Lumps under the skin all over my body and severe pain that feels like it is under my skin--like I've been skinned and the skin just laid back down raw and bruised feeling. I have to take time-released morphine for this pain and no doctor can explain the lumps other than to say it might be a side effect of the prednisone. I have never heard of anyone else having these lumps and skin pain, though. One post I read said their tongue was sore, which mine also gets when I take it.

One thing I want to emphasize is that the last time I read the printout that comes with an unopened new bottle of prednisone and that the pharmacists don't give you unless you ask, it said that the newest research suggests that you take the prednisone only EVERY OTHER DAY. Some symptoms may become a bit worse on the day off, but unless you are dealing with a potentially lethal disease, this keeps your body on its regular rhythm of making its own form of prednisone and thus prevents many of the side effects. I have been back on prednisone for 3 months now with the new one day on, one day off schedule, prescribed by my pulmonologist, and have much less of the side effects--no ravenous appetite and thus no weight gain, no swelling, no "moon face" and my lungs are still functioning much much better.
Please ask your doc about this or get the info sheet from the pharmacist (it is the very long one on tissue paper, not the one-page info sheet they are now giving us with each Rx.)

I started taking doxycycline for a simple cold and cough. by the 3 day of taking the medicine, I was feeling extremely dizzy, with headaches, had heartburn, small lumps under the skin around my eyes and over the bridge of my nose. Also tiny bumps that are painful on my tongue. I had nasuea, and stomach ache so bad I quit taking the meds after 5 days. The day after I quit taking them, my stomach is much better and no more heartburn. But still have the lumps under my skin around my eyes and nose and on my tongue.

I was put on levaquin for lung infections - I developed some side effects similar to what others have - finger pain (also 2 lumps under the skin between finger joints) wrist pain, chest soreness, soreness of calves, thighs, knees, ankles, but the
one strange side effect is - my skin is extremely salty! I asked my pulmonoligst about this symptom and she said it was the Levaquin causing it.

I have a lot of tenderness at the sites where I give myself injections and bruising and lumps under the skin. But, I am most concerned about the shortness of breath I suffer from now and difficulty breathing after exerting myself in any way.
