Swelling of the legs symptoms and conditions

My mother has been on Avelox for 1.5 days and now we're in the ER. Very similar symptoms as I've read - tremors/anxiety/headache/short of breath/pressure in the chest. Doctors just gave her Benadryl and Prednisone. She also has extreme swelling of the legs. has anyone experienced this particular symptom?

MY FATHER WAS DIAGNOSED WITH TEMPORAL ARTHRITIS. HE HAS BEEN ON PREDNISONE FOR ABOUT 5 MONTHS NOW, STARTING FROM 80MG/DAY. HE HAS TAPERED DOWN TO 40 MG/DAY,,BUT TH SIDE EFFECTS ARE STARTING TO BECOME UNBEARABLE.
WATER RETENTION,,SWELLING, MUSCLE PAIN,,WEAKNESS.
HE IS 80 YEARS OLD,,AND IT IS REALLY TAKING A TOLL ON HIM. IF ANYONE CAN GIVE ME ANY HELP OR INFO TO COUNTER SOME OF THE SIDE EFFECTS(MUSCLE PAIN AND WEAKNESS MOST IMPORTANT) IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.
THANK YOU.

I am totally shocked at what I have learned about Lipitor. My physician prescribed 10mg for me over 4 years ago. No major problems until recently. Severe neck/shoulder pain for about 3 months. Dr said it was a pulled muscle. Gave me Skelaxin. No help. Went to Chiropractor--yanked, cracked, beat, etc--no help. In the past 2 weeks or so I have developed pain in my hips, back and legs. Blamed it on being 52 years old. As I read some of the experiences on here I could relate to each one. I also have gained about 30 pounds in the past 4 years, short term memory is terrible. NO ENERGY> 3 years ago-Dr started me on Wellbutrin for depression, then added Zoloft. I am to the point now I want to get off of all this and see how I could really feel. Not sure about withdrawals. Any comments on stopping the meds?

Been on 200mg. tpamax about 6 weeks. Problem swelling of the legs and tingling in toes they sometimes turn blue. Is this a side affect of topamax or something else. Doctors have no clue what the problem is any suggestions on what to do.

The drug was prescribed for gout following a long hospital stay. It helped a lot and mobility was increased. There was swelling of the legs,feet and genitals(male), some sleeplessness,and increased appetite.
Some of the issues may be partly attributed to post op or other related personal diagnosis.
