What are you taking for treatment right now?
I know that one of the abx (or statins?) has a "serious side effect" of tendon damage!
Anyone here know which one??
Philly78 - Have you told your doctor about this?

I stopped abx two months ago and switched to herbals. Never took Cipro or Levaquin which I believe are the ones related to tendon damage.
I was on omnicef and Zith throughout my pregnancy.
I just had my appt the other day and did tell my doc but to be honest, I was so out of it, I don't even remember if she told me anything in reference to this.

I had it a couple of months ago, my daughter has it now. It's one of those symptoms that comes and goes. If you are not on Levaquin, that is.

This could be Bart. I believe Samento hits Bart. I had this a few month back when I ramped up Bart treatment. I wasn't on Levaquin/Cipro/Factive at the time.
SOmeone else also reported this while going after Bart too.
