Welcome to NeuroTalk:

May I ask what antibiotic you were on? If a fluoroquinolone, this family of antibiotics can be very neurotoxic in some people.

Here is a link to drug induced lupus:

I am in fact recovering from a drug induced lupus + angioedema from a common blood pressure drug..lisinopril. It was pretty awful, as the side effects were diagnosed as allergies and arthritis! The ACE inhibitors, can really cause severe and puzzling reactions in some people! And lisinopril is excreted unmetabolized by the kidneys and can inflame the bladder giving symptoms of UTI.
