Took 28 days of levaquin in summer 2001. Had all the side effects imaginable. Tingling/numbness, tinnitus, vision problems, cold hands and feet, metallic taste, hair loss, sun sensitivity, muscle twitching, and horrible full body pain in tendons, muscles and joints. Two years later, I have seen some recovery--especially the nervous system problems. However, the muscular skeletal problems continue to plague me. They are getting better, but it is VERY SLOW progress. Stay away from this drug, and if you have any type of reaction, please file a report directly with the FDA and the drug company.

I don't know when it had a falling out, but all I can say is the course of action to remedy this disease is CRAZY. Taking meds that have more side effects and the restrictions on my daily life, because of the meds, no driving, no salt, no sugar, and little fat in my diet, very little sun. Bathing in skin moisturizer, moodiness, mental confusion, can't work, but expected to continue cooking for family, and cleaning. Which I guess ...

I've been taking Levaquin for 2 days now and have experienced all sorts of issues. Lack of sleep, horrible nightmares (when I finally do sleep), Rectal bleeding, head pain, nausea, hair loss, vomitting, memory lapses, vomitting, memory lapses, black feces, dyslexia, narcistic impulses, hypothermia, sudden urges to watch mtv and a craving for tea biscuits. Seriously, this medicine is horrible and you should avoid it at all costs.
