I have been on Xolair for over 3 years now and have had several rounds

of Avelox since then. Not a problem for me at all, however, as we say quite a

bit in this group.. " all people are different and react differently "

I also am a well experienced Avelox patient and haven't had problems

taking it. I self-inject, so I've never had to worry about a

different nurse mixing my vials or injecting me. Surely it was the

fact that your vial wasn't mixed properly? The powder is mixed with

Sterile Water for Injection so I wonder if injecting a small bit of

powder is a problem, as the SWI itself wouldn't cause a reaction??

Maybe our nurse JoAnn will be able to provide us with an answer....

Hang in there,

It's now 3:00 pm . I took my avelox this morning . My rash has gone

away and there never was a problem at the injection sites. It is a

mystery to me.There is only one thing though that comes to mind. I

was crocheting with some yarn that was in the basement.Maybe that is

it.Thanks for everyone's input. I never had a problem before and I

really did not want it to be two of the drugs that help me the

most.Most antibiotics don't work for me anymore....Sharon
