My discomfort started about two weeks ago. The pain is both sharp and and continous. I have been to three doctors who haven`t been able to find the cause. I am feeling run down and tired.. I am sleeping twice as much as normal. There is a swelling in my lower left side. The swelling appeared several days after the pain started. There is also a rash which came on suddenly. After two days it went away just as suddenly. At first the doctors thought it may be shingles. The rash was smooth and red (unlike chicken pox rash) My pain is made worse when I change positions. Especially getting into a car.
I was in excellent health until the early March when I developed double pneumonia. I was treated with Levaquin, and thankfully the lungs quickly improved. while still on Levaquin my Achillies tendons became very sore making it difficult to walk...The doctors said it could be a side effect of the medication...Just as my heels started to improve, I began having pain in my left upper back...That lasted for about a week....pain went away, only to return again after five days. That lasted a few more days and has not returned. Soon after I developed pain in my lower left back..It was in the area over my kidney.. A sonagram of my kidneys showed no problems there. Slowly the pain has made its way to my lower left side. The worst pain so far. It is worse in the early morning...Also when I change positions.
I hope my symptoms will ring a bell with someone out there. I thank you for any insight you may have which may help me find an answer to to all this pain.

Chances are since you posted this in May, you have found some information.....But I needed to tell you if you have continued to have various pains and an odd collection of other distressing symptoms (and you still haven't got any other answers)....they may very well be related to the Levaquin....it is one of the fluoroquinolone antibiotics. If you look up fluoroquinolone side effects....&/ 'floxing' you will find some interesting information. I can tell you more but I am hoping you don't need to know by now....If you do let me know!!

I am from India. Try this home remedy for ten days. Buy dry ginger and powder it. You can dissolved one table spoon of this in four taable spoon of hot water and drink it in empty stomach 2 to 4 times a day. If find this too spicy mix ginger powder in half or teaspoon of ghee and quarter spoon of jaggery and eat it. This may help you.
If your problem is due to gas this will definately help
