Metronidazole and sleep

One week ago tomorrow, I was diagnosed with BOTH a yeast infection (my first) and a bacterial infection. The doctor gave me the generic forms of Diflucan and Flagyl. I think this medication is interfering with my sleeping. I've been taking 500 mg 2x/day for a vaginal infection and I can't sleep at night. I take the pill between 7-9am and 7-9pm and since I've started, the only night I was able to get any sleep was the night I took some Benadryl. To boot, I'm STILL having problems with vaginal itching and I don't think the Metronidazole has helped my infection at all. ARGH!!!

within two days of taking metronidazole for a gum infection i had horrible pins and needles the worst crushing headace ive ever had anxiaty panic attacks and couldt sleep for a week this medicine is the nastiest side effects ive ever had .i just got back from hospital where ive been for two days as my symptoms were so bad docs thought the infection in my gum had traveled to my brain, but after a ct scan,lumber puntcture, blood tests all came back clear they decided it was the tablets. it will take me a long time to get over this , i would advise anyone with a history of panic attacks,depression or headaches not to take metronidazole.

I was prescribed Flagyl 5oom.g TID for 10 days;I had sleeping problem start from the beginning of the course.I had dark color urination.I couldn't sleep for 5 days.I took only for 5 days and stopped the medicine.After 5 days, I started having fever and back pain even after 10 days i stopped medicine.
