Natalie,

So right about the Levaquin. I took it for 2 weeks after bladder surgery a few years ago. Didn't realize the problem with this antibiotic. About a week after surgery (while on Levaquin) feet,ankles, legs began to swell. The edema was terrible and the PN went out of sight. When I mentioned the swelling problems to surgeon; all he could say was "well you are getting older". Like; in less than two weeks, I got that much older. I still have the edema (take med daily for it) and the PN just keeps getting worse. I only wish I had been aware about Levaquin at the time.

Gerry
