| Add Avelox review I became very jaundice nausea and severe arthritic, muscle pain Have taken once before..felt terrible, nauseous, aching. This time left leg swollen double the size, cant bend knee, back ache is terrible, and I dont think it is working at all. 5 days in of 10 prescribed and feeling pretty bad. 1st time ordered for double ear infection, worked great...second time for sinus infection, within minutes started to feel hot waves from my head to toes, optical visions like black clouds rolling across eyes, then the itching started at the top of my head and would roll down all over my body to my feet,woke up my husband and told him that I think we need to go the ER, he turned on the light and to ... The DR. only prescribed 3 pills upon taking the first one I felt much much better and I had been on other meds that did not work. Avelox worked quickly with only 3 doses and different DR. | Add Zithromax review After 1-2 day of using Zithromax for a Sinus infection, I started feeling achey, I had diarrhea, I was either too hot or too cold, I felt tired, I felt dehydrated. This started yesterday afternoon(the night before the superbowl!) IT is now 7am the following morning. While I am feeling a bit better, I still feel tired, somewhat achey but not as much, and I am still running to the bathroom. This is the first time Ive experienced this with antibiotics, and this is the first and last time I will use Zithromax. It works against the infection, but causes a whole new slew of problems. So I woke up a day ago with a fever and other symptoms. Doc prescribed 250mg Zithromax. I took the first day and a long with some ibuprofen I felt fine. Woke up today with a fever of 102.3. So either this drug sucks or doctors do DO NOT TAKE THIS MEDICATION WHILE ON SEVERE PAIN MEDS!!!! My wife took this medication for a broncial infection. She was also on Methadone for pain management. The interaction between the two caused her to have a severe heart attack thus killing her. She was only 43 years old!! PLEASE DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOUR LOVED ONES. | |||
