My hubsand took levaquin for a swollen lymph node for 7 days 750 mg each day. After 2 days he started having drenching night sweats, fever, rash and aching muscles and joints. This started in August and he was hospitalized in October for 6 days. Dr.'s have diagnosed him with Still's Disease. He does have all the symptoms of Still's, but none of this started until he took Levaquin. He is now having to take 40 mg of predensoine once a day and is still having some bad days. This drug is dangerous!

I hope your husband is better. That steriod made matters worse for me. Once I got off both the drugs I began to improve again.

I had rash/ sweats/ and my vision in one eye was wrecked on dose 2 .
