Guest guest Posted May 13, 2002 Report Share Posted May 13, 2002 Definitely notify your doctor! I am on cipro now myself for a sinus infection but I'm okay with it, no side effects. I was just on macrobid not long ago for the bladder and felt it coming back and the doc said to take it again, well last tuesday I took one and had an allergic reaction to it (who knows why!). I had chest pains, shortness of breath, broke out in hives all over, my throat tightened and my tongue swelled (talk about a weird and scary feeling)and that threw me into a panic attack! I called my doc at 11pm that night! Luckily I had benadryl on hand because my throat was definitely closing! If you feel that happening like that call your doc immediately to be on the safe side.
