Peripheral Neuropathy: bad reaction to pain and antibiotic meds
Neuropathy | Last Active: Jul 10 5:12pm | Replies (20)Comment receiving replies
My 'PA' at a private clinic prescribed Levofloxcian 50MG, for a bad bout of Bronchitis, it almost crippled me more than I am now! It caused severe pain, in my lower back, unlike any I've had, and pain up and down the back of my legs! I could barely stand or walk! I read the drug issues and interactions and asked about them. He said; you won't be on it long enough for any issues. REALLY? My Primary Doctor returned and prescribed a muscle relaxer and Presnazone for 5 days. It's starting to work. He said I would have prescribed the same thing the PA did. Who is he kidding, or protecting? One of my Neurologists retired, and the other left the practice of medicine and left his patients hanging! Who do you trust?

Who do you trust is a good question. If I no longer had my neurologist, I might consider talking to my local pharmacist for any questions I had on the medications.
