Levaquin tore me up. I couldn't lift my 2 year old. I had to stop per ex-LLMD.

I am wondering if its a nerve issue or muscle thing I get a vibrating and rumbling feeling and I have a dull ache its just the left leg also my knee hurts sometimes.

Just a little worried.

Levaquin is said to cause tendon rupture. I have been told archilles tendon. One LLMD mentioned one of his patients lost the ability to control their foot movements because of tendon rupture. If the tendon ruptures I have been told the only way to remedy it is surgery. Tendon Repair.
Levaquin is not used with children under 18 yrs old-per LLMDs
