This drug is the devil! I have typically been very tolerable to different types of drugs, but all that changed with Levaquin. I felt fine for the first day or so and then one morning at work I developed a headache. This quickly developed into a racing heart, the shakes, inability to concentrate and finally the WORST feeling of depression I've EVER experienced! I honestly thought I was losing my mind! Luckily I foiund this site! For most of the next 24 hours I felt the way one might feel minutes before giving a presentation in front of hundres of people -- almost like a state of panic. It was miserable! I've never been one to post messages, but I'm doing this in hopes that it helps someone else.

Last year, starting July 5th till August 20th, at the age of 15, I am female, I had to take this devil of a drug. For nearly a month, after getting out of a hospital for a massive kidney infection caused by a kidney stone. The month I went through was a total hell; I was up all night, nearly every night, vomiting what I had managed to eat during the day. Cause of this I lost over 50 lbs and became underweight, from being unable to safely eat without vomiting minutes after the consumption of food. It gave me pseudotumor cerebri, and papilloedema which has nearly ruined my eyesight. It has also caused psychological effects with me caused by hallucinations, I cannot sleep without a nightlight, I am very paranoid of mirrors now, it has left me with depression and paranoia. I do not recommend this drug to anyone, as I am afraid it could cause death! I truly would wish this on no one, not even my enemies.
