I also experienced a shaking like symptom inside my body from taking levaquin for a month and some hair loss. I stopped taking it a month ago and feel much better. Th hair loss is still occurring but not as bad. When I brush my hair more than normal excess hair in brush but slowly getting better.

SAME symptoms here. I feel like my left shoulder is not staying in the socket and the muscle pain everywhere is nearly unbearable. Can't EVEN lift my left arm.

I was on levofloxacin and metronizadole for 10 days for diverticulitis and just finished yesterday. I am 63 and I hated the Anxiety I felt. Doesn’t sound as bad as yours, but it was making me feel Strange and Scared and every day, I Never want to Ever take these again. I hope you start feeling much better.

I've been taking Levofloxacin for 14 days. 750mg. I have had anxiety. And I feel such brain fog it's not even funny. I have the nerve pain in my hands. Since I am a hair stylist this has been really hard. I hope all the side effects go away soon.

Levofloxacin is a dangerous medicine. I took it for bk virus treatment after my kidney transplant and it made my skin rash itch and blush. it can cause tendinitis and tendon rupture for older patients. so avoid working out while on this medic even after a few months you stopped it.

According to the FDA, “Levofloxacin is excreted largely as unchanged drug in the urine. The mean terminal plasma elimination half-life of levofloxacin ranges from approximately 6 to 8 hours following single or multiple doses of levofloxacin given orally or intravenously."

No Its a common side effect and it lets you know that the medicine is working. I have had the same response the last time I took this drug & I am cured from my illness. No worries.
