I'm a 34 y/o female. I've had a double ear infection and a swollen lymph node for nearly three weeks - I was on a 10 day course of augmenting which did nothing for the infection. I went back to the doctor's yesterday - I was given a 10 day dose of Avelox. I took my first pill at 5pm about an hour later I was feeling very itchy, twenty minutes after that my face and chest broke out in huge angry hives. I wasn't having trouble breathing, but the itching was out of control - I also had the bad stomach pains. I woke up this morning and there are still several hives on my face that are huge and sore. I will never take Avelox again, and I'm telling everyone I know to stay far away from it. It should be pulled!
