UPDATE from Yesterday)))>>> well thanks to everyone i quit taking it yesterday BUT!!!---> today when i woke up i had a horrible head ache and it seemed to be coming from my left eye. i looked in the mirror and i have a really weird yellowish glazed tint in both my eyes and in my left eye a blood vessel has burst. i also noticed ive developed a skin rash on my right side of my stomach and on my left calf. My joints kept me up all night in constant pain which felt like someone was ripping apart my ligaments. I had a minor anxiety attack last night (Ive NEVER had anxiety before) and my body just feels weak, drained, and i keep getting really weird muscel spasms in my upper thigh. I tried to go out to the store earlier and as soon as i stepped into the sunlight a migraine hit me, and ive never been sensitive to light....Ive had a feeling of helplessness and worthlessness more in the past 24 hours than i have in a year. Im also experiencing horrible lower back pain and stomach pain around where my kidneys are.... I did have a small amount breast tenderness when i woke up and im not sure if that's another side effect...(no im not pregnant, had multiple urine tests in the last week)...I think ive only went potty maybe once today...and that was at like 9am...its now almost 9pm. Im pretty sure if this isn't over with or doesn't improve by 10pm im going to the hospital.....i cant drink water and im pretty sure im getting dehydrated....my skins turning pale, i have dark rings around my eyes.....etc.......has anyone else suffered with these things? Levaquin is by far the MOST painful, riskful, antibiotic ive been on...They should definitely take this sh*t off the market!!! =[[

For more unbiased information on this group of antibiotics please visit www.fqresearch.org, www.fqvictims.org

Read Stephen Frieds book - Bitter Pills.

His wife suffered serious side effects from a antibiotic in his group - quinolones.

Also google for the words floxed and floxies.

That´s what people call themselves when they have got serious - and long lasting - side effects from this type of antibiotics.

It`s not unusual to become very sensitive to the ligth and suffer different problems with the eyes.

A relative of mine took an another quinelone - Ciprofloxacin.

I hope you feel better soon.

Good luck.

Get to the ER if you haven't already. I was completely yellow and crazy after 8 days on Levaguin. I'm an accountant, I'm not crazy.
