I am on day 8 of taking Levaquin. I had to leave work early today because I was severely sick to my stomach and could barely function. My arms feel so heavy and my chest hurts. My blood pressure was 140/100 and my pulse was 94. I am 33 years old and this should not be happening to me. I also take Wellbutrin, Lamictal, and Adderall! My PCP knows this and never warned me of any thing. Yes, I read the Walgreens printouts and nothing much there. I called my behavioral health doc and after 6 1/2 hrs of waiting (guess my health is not too important to her) her nurse calls back and tells to wait it out and if it continues after I am done with the antibotics call her! What for? She not once asked what it was or how much I am taking. She was useless. I am stopping the Levaquin now. I feel so horrible. I have already cried and laid down in the fetal position, but nothing helps! If we can't trust our doctors, who can we trust?
