Started out with antibiotic related c. diff. Doctor started me on flagyl. Within the first 3 days I started experiencing nausea in the evenings with constant headaches not relived by ibuprofen. Within the 7th day, my wrist became swollen and stiff, along soreness. by the end of the seventh day, the stiffness and soreness moved to by right arm. Extreme join pain and now my whole upper body feels sore and stiff. Tomorrow is my last day, I'll tough it out until then, but I will never take this again! | F | 25 | 10 days 500 3X day | 9/22/2012 | 4 | BV | Tired, anxious, paranoid, depressed, run down, no sex drive, irritable, intense appetite, headaches!!! But the bv is gone. I felt like I was having a nervous breakdown | F | 33 | 7 days 500 mg | 9/21/2012 | 1 | C Diff | Anxiety, Loss of Appetite, Indigestion, Loose Stool, Diarrhea, Joint Pain, Muscle Pain | I have never felt so awful on a medication in my life! I stuck it out for the entire 14 days and hope it killed the c diff infection. I have been off this horrible medicine four days and still have no appetite, have bouts of loose stools and diarrhea, and worse of all are the anxiety and panic attacks. I had no anxiety before starting this med. I hope it ends soon and I didn't do permanent damage! The only good thing so far is that the joint and muscle pain have gone away. | F | 42 | 14 days 500 mg 3X day | 9/20/2012 | 1 | PID | After 1 dose I experienced severe nausea & anxiety for a week straight. | I was supposed to be on this medication for 2 weeks, but after one 1 days worth I was so sick I couldn't even look at food. I have been having severe panic attacks everyday since & I am worse off now than I was before I started taking this. I would NEVER EVER EVER consider taking this again!! | F | 23 | 1 days 2X day | 9/19/2012 | 5 | bv | Arms and legs feel weak, anxiety, almost paranoid, dark urine,just very nervous, shaky..but it has helped my bv. | F | 40 | 4 days 500mg | 9/10/2012 | 4 | BV | On about Day 3 began to feel uncomfortable in lower right abdomen, like too full, but also a little sharp. Sensations persisted Days 4-6. I worried I was getting a hernia or appendicitis. I also have felt very tired, for a couple of days was very sleepy and withdrawn. I have one more day, so if bv is gone it will have been worth it, but I will probably not take it again if I can avoid it. Note: I had also changed my diet drastically and began using Estrogen cream at same time, so it's hard to say definitively it was the metronidazole, or only that. | F | 51 | 7 days 500 MG 2X day | 9/10/2012 | 3 | bv | I feel awful anxiety rapid heart beat, very tired l feel foggy headed bloated, but I can see improvement already the odor from bv I've been dealing with bv off and on for a year im gonna stick it out really want to get rid of this embarrassing problem. | F | 34 | 2 days 500 mg | 9/8/2012 | 3 | stomach ulcer | nausea, headaches, anxiety, deppression, feeling very sick, dark urine after taking the pill. | Stay away from it | M | 32 | 11 days 500 3X day | 9/6/2012 | 1 | Parasite | Depression, loss of sex drive, anxiety, dermatitis, flushing, urine incontenency, problems sleeping, throatproblems, low energy, memory problems. | I've taken the medicine in the end of february 2012 and the problems aren't really improving. I've been taking probiotics ever since, have a really healthy dieet(had before too) and workout. Since a few days i've started working in the garden of my mother since i've read the soil bacteria may help with the depression. It makes me feel more relaxed, but i havent noticed a improvement yet. PLEASE IF YOU HAVE ANY TIPS, ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM OR HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS AFTER TAKING THE MEDICINE, EMAIL ME. | M | 25 | 7 days 500 3X day | 9/6/2012 | 1 | Diverticulitis | Severe nausea, fatigue, depression, metal taste in mouth, tightness in upper abdomen, severe anxiety, insomnia. | This horrible drug was prescribed for my 83 y/o mother b/c of Diverticulitis. On day 5 she stopped the drug because she felt so sick - not like she was going to throw up, just a severe feeling of being sick to her stomach. One day after she quit the Flagyl, she ended up in the ER because she felt so sick. They hospitalized her for 2 days, ran numerous tests, did blood work just to make sure it was nothing else. Her Diverticulitis is gone and all labs came back normal. She has been off the Flagyl for 4 days now and still feels VERY sick - Dr. assured her it's because of the Flagyl and it could take up to 10 days after stopping it to feel back to normal. This drug is terrible and I would NOT recommend it to anyone. | F | 83 | 5 days 500MG 3X day | 9/5/2012 | 1 | BV | severe anxiety, zero appeite, foggy brain, confusion, forgetfulness, parinoid feeling | F | 53 | 5 days 500mg 2X day | 8/31/2012 | 3 | recurrent Throat infection wth ulce | BROWN urine, furry tongue, bad taste, rash on hands | I cant believe the amount of side effects i get with this medecine, really bad and disturbing, pretty unusual for me. I do hope they will subsidise once treatment is completed! Medecine working ok so far on infection side, so sticking with it. | F | 37 | 6 days 200 3X day | 8/29/2012 | 3 | c-diff | Dark urine, nausia, lethargy/fatigue, loss of apetite, hairy tongue feel/terrbile taste, increased heart rate, loose stool. | Took last pill yesterday and am so happy it is over. Dose was 1 pill every 8 hrs for 14 days. Taste is completely awful and coats mouth in chemically taste like chewing on a bleach soaked clorex wipe, I got OK at throwing it to the back of my throat but taste still penetrated and was still terrible. After a few days mouth had an atrocious fuzzy feeling all over and all the time, and a constant taste as if the fumes of a small dead rodent were rising from my gut and into my mouth – last few days were really difficult because of the taste in my mouth. No food tasted right and no amt of water could help. I am an amateur endurance athlete and had to discontinue my training after a few days on it due to fatigue. I’m a pretty resilient dude and don’t mean to sound like a crybaby but after a week of this kaka, it wears on you. | M | 38 | 14 days 500 Mg 2X day | 8/28/2012 | 4 | Infection from leaving tampon in | bloated; diarrhea; very tired; cloudy; irritable | F | 36 | 9 days 500mg 2X day | 8/20/2012 | 1 | Trich | I took 4 500mg single dose yesterday and ithe am scarded to death....Extreme flu like symptoms.....hard to swallow..throat sore...swollen glands...weak...massive headaches..sharp pains in my stomach...fever..chills..tingling all over..loss of appetite.....the worst | F | 30 | 1 days 2000mg | 8/17/2012 | 1 | BV | Anxiety, panic attacks, feeling disoriented, nausea, vomiting, just feeling crazy, confusion, tingling sensation throughout my body that starts in my chest, heart palpitations, I could go on.... | F | 30 | 1 days 2000 | 8/16/2012 | 4 | diverticulitus | I too have to psych myself up to take this drug....I have 6 pills left and can't wait for the end! Bad dizzyness ....horrible taste...feel like I have a constant hairy tongue. But my pain has subsided. Can't wait until this is over!! | F | 42 | 2 weeks 500 | 8/5/2012 | 4 | Bacterial Infection | Fatigue and increased depression, itchy skin mainly on chest, arms and lower legs, abdominal discomfort and some diarrhea. | METRONIDAZOLE - I'm surprised my doc would give this to me as I am on depression meds already. This increased my depression a lot. I was so exhausted and fatigued that I would fall asleep constantly and swiftly throughout the day. Just wiped me out! My skin was also very itchy and I had a slight red rash on legs and chest. Very uncomfortable. While seems to have worked it was a big waste of a week. I couldn't force myself to take the last day of meds. | F | 43 | 7 days 500MG 2X day | 8/5/2012 |
