Levaquin and lack of energy

First day, after I took 750 mg Levaquin I had cookies and cup of tea for lunch (loss of apetite probably). Next morning I felt lack of energy. Within an hour after taking the second dose I felt depressed and hopeless for a short time. If the symptoms remain where they are I will continue and finish the other 3 doses because have been suffering from sinus infection for almost a month. Thanks to all the contributors for their input. I can see how dangerous this medicine can be for some patients.

I started taking lavaquin for a upper respiratory infection, (Asmatic Bronchitis) soon after my sleep pattern changed, where I use to fall a sleep as soon as my head hit the pillow, I, now would lay awake for hours, then my right hand stared hurting like the circulation was being cut off, just overall weird feelings of depression, lack of energy, weepy, not really caring about anything. I felt like life wasnt worth it. It was like a constant sense of saddness surrounding me. I won't take it again.

My mother, age 73, has always been in excellent health. She was prescribed Levaquin for an upper respiratory infection. She immediately became nauseous and slept all day. She is the type of person who barely gets nauseous with stomach flu. Within 3 days of taking the Levaquin she began to have tremors. She can no longer write legibly. Her entire upper body and voice quiver constantly. Her legs feel week and quiver "from the inside" and she has no energy. She took the Levaquin for only 5 days. She stopped over a month ago and still has tremors and lack of energy. I don't believe people are being warned of the possible side effects of this drug.

I have taken Levaquin for one week and the only major side affects I have encoutnered have been dizzines, and having lack of energy, and being tired no matter how much sleep I receive. Other than that, I haven't had any major problems. As long as it takes care of the sinus infection, I will be satisfied.
