Neck spasms symptoms and conditions

I'm 36 and have been on this med for about 1.5 years. I've had some mild sporadic side effects on going but thought they were just my failing health! Chest pains, tingling in my hands, arms (my left arm bothers me more and scares me of course), my legs and even feet. I have insane muscle spasm/cramps. I have twitches and spasms in places I had no idea were even muscles. Backaches, head and jaw aching, blurred vision, feeling hung over and drugged, tired and require at least 9 consistent hours of uninterrupted sleep if I am to feel okay for half of the day. No energy otherwise, pain in my feet now when I walk, heart flutters and twitches and neck spasms and pain all over my body. I've been in the ER a number of times with them unable to find me ready for the heart attack I think I'm having. I've even been depressed and suicidal with feeling this bad. These symptoms increased in discomfort and My bladder/uterus are enlarged/swollen and morning urination especially is painful even if I have not much to evacuate. I noticed that these symptoms grew more frequent and stronger and the past few months I literally thought I was going to checkout any day. I was just waiting. I thought, oh well, you're on meds for bp, but you got on too late. Your time is up. I noticed also that right after I take my pill I feel worse. So I feel the best (which is not really at all) right before my next pill is due. After reading everybody elses problems with this med, and that it's actually made from snake venom, I am going to as safe and painless as I can, wean myself from this junk. Who in their right mind would give snake venom to people? If you get bit by a venomous snake, these are exactly the things that are effected. Your nervous system, your heart, breathing, blurred vision, etc. My only fear is that having these symptoms now for this long have done permanent damage. I pray not.

had two sets of injections in my neck for neck spasms. First set in March 2nd in June. after the first injections I notice fatigue, I lost 33lbs. of muscle mass in three weeks. been lifting for 28 yrs. and it's all gone. Burning sensation in legs weakness in arms, legs. Adrennal and pituary glands have shut down testosterone level dropped from 675 to 75. chronic thrush (yeast infection) on fluconazole 150 mg. once a day. Drs. do not know when this will leave the body. Now have to see infectious disease Dr. because of the recurring thrush, possible liver damage from fluconazole. Also lost at least 3/4" in height.
Thsi stuff is vicious.

I have been on zocor for 7 weeks and almost immediately upon taking have experienced leg cramping. When I saw dr. about 4 weeks after starting zocor I told him that 2 hrs. after taking med's I have muscle cramping. He disregarded my concern. Since then, I have experienced more severe pains in my legs, shoulder tightness , back of neck spasms. This morning spasm were severe in neck, feet, calfs plus blurred vision. I am in route to the dr. to tell him that I am discontinuing this medication.

I took this medicine in 2005 for a very stiff neck and neck spasms. I do not recall having any side effects and took all but two of the final pills of a 4mg six day pack.

just started 40 mg /day for neck spasms and headaches- and on my first day am getting hot flashes.. and of course, oh, so tired. Is this common side effect? This is a great site/

I took Levacquin in APril & thought it was my imagination that my hip began aching. I now have severe tendonitis & cannot drive. I am thin, an athlete & never had such a prblem. Then my kness swelled up, my neck spasms constantly & I looked this up here.

My dr. told me not to work out when taking this & I did not BUT this still happened. A small case of tendonitis is what she said might happen! Not swelled knees, bruising, fatigue like I am 90 years old. As for the idiots saying this is "whining"? I work 70 hours a week as a project manager in the FDA field. I have no time or desire to whine. Perhaps 100 plus entries does not hit you as odd but it actually is, for we educated people. DId I mention that I work in an FDA related field? I just had a sinus infection that would not clear up & I did not bargain for this ...nor was I told. I am going to go to the fda.gov website & ask for their "adverse events" reporting information (based on the drugs clinical trials) which they have to release by law. I advise that you all do as well ..... uh, except for those that have too much tome on thier hands and just don't get it.

I have been on this medication for the last 2 weeks .I never had asthma . I had a case of acute bronchitis with wheezing it required 2 day hospital stay/steriods and inhalers.I am off prednisone and suppose to take this inhaler for 12 weeks.
I am experiencing :
Hoarse voice/Bloating/nerverousness/dizziness very painful neck spasms that radiate down my left arm to my hand.
My gut is to quit. I go bac to work on Monday. I am an er case manager I will be seeking out the pulmonologist to have a heart to heart!!

During a recent acute headache episode, I was given a pain shot as well as an injection of Reglan, and then given Reglan 10 mg QID. After the injection, I began experiencing horrible restlessness and could not seem to sit still. While then progressing on to the oral medication, I soon began experiencing extremely painful muscle spasms throughout my body, as well as weakness, right eye twitching, neck spasms that radiated down the front and back-side of the neck and chest, trouble with swallowing, and developed near lockjaw, only speaking like a ventriloquist. I even thought I had developed tetanus from a recent thorn in my finger. Well, my symptoms were due to REGLAN and should this happen to anyone else, STOP the medication IMMEDIATELY and notify your physician. In my case, I am taking Benadryl to counteract the extrapyramidal side-effects/dystonia. My symptoms all occurred within days of the Reglan; the injection symptom of agitation was more of an immediate reaction that continued to occur with the oral form of medication.

Ok, here goes! I've waited to enter this until I left the levaquin nightmare. This drug made my life miserable for three months. Iam a very healthy active person even ran a marathon in Novemember. I was prescribed levaquin for a lung infection in February. Was prescribed 500 mg for a week. When I started taking the drug I had very bad neck spasms but just assummed the drug was ridding me of infection. The full effects of the drug became more evident towards the end of treatment.
I was extremely tired, sleepy, very weak muscles hardly able to push the gas peddle without feeling weak. The thought of walking to the mail box was overwhelming. I had internal chills and shivering, muscle aches, muscle spasms and muscle twitching and just felt dreadful. This went on for about three months. I am still not myself but I think I am on the road to recovery. I was told by my doctor that I had neurotoxicity to levaquin. I cannot tell you how much money and agony this has caused me. I was also referred to a rheumatologist, and a neurologist to rule out other diseases.I went to a naturopath, my obgyn, my dermatologist (
weird skin things) I worried like crazy that I would never be the same all because of an antibiotic. This drug should be taken off the market immediately. Good luck to all of you who are suffering. I have things that seemed to help me but I think time is the only cure.

A friend gave me Flexeril for neck spasms and it caused extreme confusion and dizziness. It's been 18 hours since I took 10mg pill and I still can't focus. This is worse than any drug I have ever taken.
