Were you tested after the course of Levaquin? What is the status of your Pseudomonas now? Still there? Side effects from the Levaquin?

Hi irenea8. No further sputum submission requested. Therefore can't say what the Pseudomonas status is now. Your question about side effects of Levaquin. When I've taken it in the past I've generally tolerated 500 mg daily OK. This time was tougher. Some problems could be tied to the ??bronchitis or another issue--fatigue, lack of appetite, cough. I was hoping to do a 14-day course but to be truthful I began having so many random thoughts going through my head--like my life events. That was strange enough but the night of day 10 I experienced a nightmare of some of the most awful, evil, sick things that I just quit taking the Levaquin. I even told the NP at my pulm group about it but she did not make any comments. Not sure if I'll ever try it again. Thanks.
