ive been doing the bicciln shots now for a long time. i was on flagyl for a short period of time tooo but i stopped that bc of severe depression and now my doc added levaquin and tindimax. the levaquin ive been doing for a month now but the tindimax i was doing for a very short period of time. today i took my first tindimax pill 500 mg in a week or 2 and i feel insanely irritable and super depresssed im going insane i cant sit stilll its miserable i hope this is not a side effect and is just a misserable herx that willl passs bc it is sooo hard to deal with it. i feel like so many awkward things are taking place inside of me and it just isnt right what could this be?

It might be too much, too soon?

Stop doing it until you talk to your LLMD. Fortunately for us, the meds get out of our system pretty quickly when we have adverse reactions.

Drink lots of water and go and watch a favorite tv show or video you like. This seems to help me when I've over-medicated or have adverse reactions.

Stay cool.....we have all been thru it. Keep us posted and just "let it be" for awhile.

Thinking of you now with good thoughts. [Smile]

Sure sounds like a side effect. You had the severe depression with the Flagyl same class of
drugs. Maybe someone who has taken both can tell
you whether this is a side effect or herx.
If it is a herx maybe you can cut back, your
reacion sounds severe. I just don't think anyone
should have to suffer this much to get better!
