Val,

I had a VERY bad reaction to Cipro 3 years ago, my joints swelled, ached, along

with an assortment of other terrible problems. I will never take that antibiotic

again. It took about 3 weeks for my joints to settle back down and even now I

wonder if some of the problems I have now and then are from that time. I took

Cipro's cousin, and I am sorry, can't remember the name, but it gave me a minor

issue of joint pain. ugh.

this is returning hypo due to the illness or from the Cipro? Anyone

have that happen on that antibiotic?

I am still running a fever of 99.9, just checked it but I feel SO much better

than I did. But I haven't had the cracking joints in a long time. I noticed as I

stepped over the puppy gate my hip just crunched and when I try to eat my jaw is

cracking and both those things had been gone for several years. Of course I am

not eating much either. Soup and macaroni is about all I can eat, maybe I will

try some flavored rice tonight. I had some cephalexin (Keflex) ordered but I

ordered it over a week ago and still no word. Usually it is here in 2 days from

my pet supplier, LOL.

Yikes...below are a couple of paragraphs from this website. No wonder I have had

tendonitis problems since using this drug. I actually fired my family doctor

after many years, when, during using Cipro that she prescribed, told me to use

an antiflammatory drug, and the insert tells you specifically NOT to use them.

http://www.westonaprice.org/healthissues/cipro.html

Just as in the case of Baycol and other fluorinated drugs, Cipro can cause

musculo-skeletal disorders such as rhabdomyolysis. Since the introduction of

fluoroquinolones on the market in 1987, more than 200 cases of rhabdomyolysis,

tendinitis, tendon rupture, etc. have been reported in the literature.4,13,14,15

In 1996, the FDA also issued directives to manufacturers to include warning

statements on all fluoroquinoline product inserts to alert patients and

caregivers to the potential for tendinitis and tendon rupture.17 In the same

year, the Sri Lanka Drug Evaluation Sub-Committee decided that the product

information sheet on fluoroquinolone antibiotics should include the following

warning: “The onset of tendon pain calls for immediate withdrawal of

fluoroquinolone antibiotics.”18

Well they are about gone, one more dosage and if that doesn't kick this

infection I am going to be heading to the ER to get something else anyway.

Well one thing I have always said, do as I say not as I do... I am NOT going to

the ER tonight. It is cold and nasty outside and a LONG drive there. I am going

in to work tomorrow and I work less than 5 miles from the hospital. If I feel I

still need antibiotics tomorrow I will stop there before coming home.

Small world. I ate nothing Monday due to the flu virus from hell.

Tuesday, I had watered down orange juice and some rice last night.

Today, I couldn't seem to want ANYTHING......until I remembered that

my husband left chicken broth for me in the refrig. I stirred in

some rice--heated it up--voila. Now that hit the spot. Anything else

repulses me.

yep. It looks like it could also cause muscle wasting and in some cases death

due to renal or liver failure. ugh.
