Non are antibiotics however back in February I had a persistent UTI and was put on Levaquin for 6 days, then Bactrim then something else (I forget). No symptoms till about 10-12 days ago.
Something I forgot to mention to my DR which I will mention when they do the draw tomorrow is several months ago - possibly May or so - I suddenly had a raised, red and VERY itchy rash on both thighs. Never went to the Dr just self treated. It was like a "dry" poison ivy almost although I was never exposed to any of it and always wear pants etc. Not sure if that would be of use to mention but I will tell him anyway.
I am walking/managing fine but today my arms burn, much like they do after you have worked out. Toes and pinky fingers feel like they are asleep but they're not. I can feel them, type fine etc.  The tingling moves too. It's not constant and not always the same area.
Hoping I find out something soon and it's something he can treat
Thank you for your comments!

for the time table for the antibiotics to become an issue but I would definitely mention those along with the dry rash. Many keep journals and record symptoms and reactions, pain levels, dates, med changes,starts,stops,ect. If you experience burning and tender skin on the surface, Mortons Epsom Salt Lotion let me use bedsheets again. Good Luck, Ken in Texas.
