Sinuitis symptoms and conditions

I was given Aveloz with Predisone for sinuitis...I was having no symtoms but a MRI Then 2 CT's showed bad infections in sinus.

Day 2 3 hours after taking I saw gold sparks fly off the back of my friends dog has he came out a doggie door. I said oh wow your dog just got shocked. She was like no she didn't. I got in my car to go home it was dark and my left eye began to rapidly flash white light. I drove one 1/2 mile and my visison was blurred with numerous floaters. I called my insurance company and they told me to get to the ER. The er Doctor told me not a side effect as I suspected but my retina had detached. HE said go home and lay flat and go directly to Eye, Ears, Throat Doctor expecting to have laser eye sugery in the am.

I did go to the Eye specialist and he said I was fortunate that just the gel wall collasped in the back of my eye. He said it is not the drugs...aging happens to everyone. I just knew better.

I took the meds a different time yesterday and had a similar worsening experience.

Today I was on the phone and all of a sudden was in a deep brain fog. Words would not come out of my mouth. I knew I was trying to talk but it was like my brain was detached and was not letting the words come to me.

I am suppose to take this 15 days, refill and take 15 more days. Come back for an MRI ..then take 15 more days.

I am not sure what to do now.

I called manufacturer of drug and they took report and said "we will report to FDA." Also took my information and doctors phone, fax and address and name.

Two years ago in May I was hospitalized for an intestinal blockage. They put a combo of levaquin and flagyl into me with IVfeed. It is such a powerful drug that they kept having to move where the needle went into my arm because it became red and swollen after a day or so. The last time they put it in was at the left wrist outside. This caused the vein to eventually collapse all the way down my inner arm and over the heart.
I was released within 5 days and told to take levaquin for ten more days. I could hardly take it any longer and went to my local redi-care to find out what I could take to alleviate the stomach pain. The doc there said stop taking it.
After that episode I began to have pain in my lower spine and across the gluteals. Sometimes when I would sit down it felt as if everything was tearing loose.
This past Feb/March I was given this drug again for headaches which were thought to be sinuitis. The only way I could take it was to cut it in half and take that until it was gone.
Now I have 6 ulcers, a ruptured tendon in the right shoulder and pain in my lower left leg and ankle.
Where I live it is illegal to sue drug companies.
Don't take this stuff or any of its family members.
I can hardly walk and my left arm is scheduled for surgery which I may need to cancel.

i am so glad to have read this. my daughter is 4 and was recently put on singular for her chronic sinuitis and allergies.....she started itching uncontrollably for days...and her moods were horrible..she could not sleep and when she did sleep it was a very restless sleep with bad dreams..she became very agressive...it was weird so i was told by the doctors that it was not the singular but after reading this i see i was right! i just want my sweet little girl non-itching back!!
i stopped the singulair!

On October 4th, I received a Kenalog shot of 80mg to help with my severe sinuitis. I was told I would be spotting for 2-8 days. It went on for two months. It recently quit on December 7th. I am fortunate that that has been all. Kenalog needs to be rethought about. I am surprised also that my ENT doctor also did not freely give any information about this steroid.

Sleeplessness. Strange dreams. Dizziness. Ears feel strange, can't quite explain it. My moods have also been strange, very easily angered. I am being treated for sinuitis. I am taking 500 mg twice per day.

I have had Kenalog shots for about two years now. I started having the shots for plantar facitis(foot pain). I realized the shot also cleared all my hayfever and sinuitis. Then I realized the 80 mg. shot was also stopping all the pain over my entire body. I have arthritis and severe back and neck pain. My orthopedic Dr. says my back is shot! I have been in so much pain that I could not stand it anymore. Most of the shots have been in my hip or buttock. The only side effects I have had is a rise in my blood pressure and increase in appetite. But I have never had any pitting or discoloration. I have had a shot every 6 to 9 weeks over the past two years. Needless to say, I know these shots aren't healthy to my bones, but I couldn't function without the shot. I'm sure everyone has different reactions and some have to be more severe than others. Believe me I have read these side effects and I have looked for the spots, pits, and discoloration. I have none to this date. Nor have I had any bleeding.
