Levaquin and lunch

I've been on Levaquin for only 2 days, combined with Prednisone... Taking them due to a nasty sinus infection. One of these two meds is making every joint in my body hurts, as well as me having lost almost every bit of my sense of taste. I ate general tso's chicken today for lunch and could not taste anything, so as an experiment I ate one of those little red Chinese peppers that I normally throw out because they are WAY too hot - I couldn't taste a thing. Last night I had to drop the air condition down to 68 degrees as one of these two meds made me sweat very heavily and uncomfortably hot.

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.

PLEASE, SEND IN A MEDWATCH REPORT (WWW.FDA.GOV) BECAUSE THE DRS DON'T EVEN BOTHER READING THE INFO ON THE DRUGS, THEY JUST GO BY WHAT THE REPS ARE TELLING THEM AS THEY EAT THE LUNCH THE REPS BROUGHT IN.
DO THIS SO THAT OTHERS MIGHT BE SAVED FROM THIS POISON

I went to the doctor earlier this week with cold/flu like symptoms, and the doctor prescribed levaquin. I then began to feel very sore in my neck and shoulders, and became very nauseous. I decided to see what would happen if I skipped one dose a few nights back. The result was waking up and feeling great. So, just to be sure, I took a dose of Levaquin when I got to work this morning...and, during lunch, I ran to the bathroom and "got rid of lunch"...and the achiness has also returned. Needless to say, I will not be taking it any longer, and the remaining pills in the bottle will soon find the same path that my lunch did.
