Levaquin and fiance

Are you guys for real? In reading through the side effects blogs it really reads like it is all the same person writing, maybe someone trying to beat up on the competition or something. It did scare me out of letting my 24 year old son take it for severe sinus infections, however and I just hope that two days of a 750mg dose per day doesn't show forth the negative effects in the days to come!! Please tell me it's not as bad as it sounds!

My finance was prescribed Levaquin for a food borne bacterial infection. On day 4 of the antibiotic, he broke out into a horrible body rash. It is all everywhere from scalp to toes. It started as a small rash under the arms and by the next day it was a small bump-like rash all over. Then it got splotchy...red and white... we went to the ER and they gave him the usual steroid and anxiety control drugs to help but he now looks as if he has a sun burn and is developing bruse-like purple patches all over his legs and groin. He is almost convulsing due to the pain. Has anyone had this reaction?
