Cannot stop burning. Went through all supps and took out all possible s and stopped levaquin and tindemax a week ago. Whenever I start movement legs arms etc that is what burns. My igm score with yeast was normal. Just bending legs makes them burn

Remind me - was the burning there before you started levquin?

This concerns me because levquin had the black box warning - that includes risk of peripheral neuropathy. (that can become permanent)

your burning is most likely peripheral neuropathy.

Yes it was here before. Maybe not to this extent.

Have you thought about stopping the levaquin? Just because it does cause that same symptom?

I have been off since last Wednesday. Going to try neuro tin now. It covers up I know but I'll take it

Why, oh why don't doctors know that flouroquinolones should be used as a last resort for infections. So many lives have been ruined from these meds.

Will your doc prescribe Gabapentin? I know it helps some with nerve pain like that - but not everyone. You might see if you can get a trial of it.

tcoach - said he was going to try neurontin.. (which is Gabapentin) - autocorrect changed the spelling of it, though.
