That being said I haven't had any issues with anxiety ever since. Started taking augmentin and within days I started experiencing anxiety to the point that I could barely keep myself together. Mind racing, complete loss of control of thoughts as well as strange thoughts. Very scary and I would not recommend this drug to anyone w/anxiety issues. Thankfully I decided to look it up and found this is one of the most severe. BEWARE OF THIS DRUG | M | 37 | 10 days 875 | 9/24/2015 | 1 | Possible bacterial pneumonia | Severe upper leg pain (both thighs). Wrist and hand pain (both hands). Constipation. Insomnia. | Within the first two or three days, the muscles in the top part of both of my thighs started hurting continuously. From the knee to the groin. Very bad pain. Then both of my hands started tingling and hurting with a stinging pain (like having them thrust into a bucket of freezing water). If not for Ibuprofen, I don't know what would have become of me, it hurt that bad. And it was continuous. I also experienced severe constipation (which is totally unheard of for me). Plus my sleep cycle suddenly changed. I though that might be because of the unrelenting pain, but now I'm not so sure. I stopped taking it one day shy of the two week mark my Doctor prescribed. That was two days ago. Now my leg pain is relenting somewhat. I hope it stops soon. | M | 57 | 13 days 875-125mg 2X day | 6/21/2015 | 1 | Sinus respiratory | Horrible stomach pain and bleeding and developed C diff now from it | Please don't take this..
