A week and a half ago my doctor prescribed Leviquan for a sinus infection that I had. The day that I started taking it I noticed that my left shoulder was hurting when i stretched my arn out and lifted it over my head. My heels began to be sore and I developed a rash around my buttocks. Being 67 tears old, at first I attributed it all to my age and thought it would get better. I have had rashes before and got over them. I began to loose sleep and then there where 2 night where I didn't sleep at all. This is when my suspicions developed and then last night I went to bed and awoke an out later on fire. I have a rash covering my entire body now. i tried to use the restroom but could not relieve myself. I went to the computer and that's when i found that all of these symptoms are for Leviquin. The urination problem has to do with crystallization of the drug in the urinary track or something like that. I called the doctor's office and was immediately taken off the drug (I had already taken myself the damn stuff) and told to take bynadryl. If it get's worst, go to the emergency room (Well Ya!!). Time for the lawyer
