I am a little anxious now. Last Febuary I was prescribed levaquin for a serious I thought cold, but it was a respitory infection. After taking it a couple of days I felt really strange. Dizzy, not able to walk very well and really out of it. After 5 days I was done with the levaquin. But still had some symptoms. I grabbed the fridge door got something out closed the door, but my hand would not let go. I was looking at my hand and telling it to let go, but nothing. I had to pull my left hand away with my right. I went to the doctor they did a brain scan. I had had a stroke. The doctor saw my scan before he saw me. He was shocked because I was walking on my own. The size of my stroke should have put me in a wheel chair. Has any one else ever had this type or similar symptoms from this medicine. Because they now have me on it again.
