We know all too well the symptoms you are experiencing. We also agree that something needs to be done. My floxing took place 18 months ago and my journey still continues. I am very concerned about the pain you are experiencing in the right shoulder and bicep. That's the one that got me. I had a complete distal bicep tendon rupture and it happen quite some time after I stopped the Levaquin (and I only finished 5 days of a 10 day course). So be very careful! I am curious.... you state "I am a pharmaceutical rep. ".... could you possibly pass this information along to others in your position so that we can at least get the word out?
Please send in a MedWatch report at www.fda.gov
