Avelox and urination

I'm on day 12 of a 14 day course of Avelox.

I usually have problems with antibiotics that are of the Quinilone or Floxin family so I was worried about taking this medication.

I've hung in there so far. I seem to have had a middle ear infection caused by my sinusitis problems.

I have noticed some nausea, increased urination and tiredness. I haven't had any joint pain; maybe a bit of stiffness.

I never had antibiotic problems till the newer forms of the old antibiotics became popular. I know I'm allergic to sulfa drugs but never had problems with any other medications till recently.

Now I can't decide if it's worth the pain and misery to take the antibiotics that are now available.

I have just posted about my experience with Avelox on 11 Mar 08 but forgot to mention that my blood pressure dropped to 80/40 in the ambulance on the way and I kept blacking out and have also experienced extreme urination about every 15 minutes but thought that was from the catheter the ER used that night while treating allergic reaction to same.
I had to return to family physican Wed for shot Depramedrol as the Avelox was still in my system and the hospital also told me to use Benadryl to couneract same. I am glad to find this site as I was doing some research to see what in the world happened but my throat totally closed up as stated in previious post so could not talk!!
