thought pochitis or dehydrated b/c aching all over & etc. started cipro (taken before)with no side affects. 4yrs. ago broke out told shingles (some might remember my post)saw 4docs. still no real answer. Now have same breakout/burns (like sunburn)in addition to last time skin is peeling. Also elbo (right only)if put down on something feels like pin sticking in it. Also rist hurt. Also have cuffitis (canasa) but have taken both together. Have gone through the change could it now be too strong for my body? ANY IDEAS! Also itches. Needless to say one issues is enough to deal with but all together is driving me nuts/makes me ill. when stressed does seem worse/more pain when cold or rainy. Have woke up sweating so not sure if fungus. Might be several issues. Any feedback will be much appreciated. Dermatologist once said does not think pain/breakout is related/he knows nothing about lupus or other issues even though they also deal w/skin issues....

I am so sorry KK, This is just not fair!
Alergies have a nasty habit of getting worse over time and their symptoms or side effects get worse.
In the begining you may have mild or medium break outs of rashes, redness, joint inflamation, pain, shingles or other symptoms but as time goes by your body reacts worse...things only get worse.
You must tell the doctor who prescribes them that you are have an alergic reaction to them and to change antibiotics.
It is no joke and should not be taken lightly.

Thanks Sharon!!! At first I thought it was from applying body wash (thinking it was just lotion) b/c off bottle looking more like my lotion/not my body wash. Sounds like a dumb thing I did but purch. on shelf as lotion/used when running out of other. With everything packaging is sometimes changed so didn't realize until hubby asked what I was putting on me. This morning I saw bruises on my arm where all I did was lightly press showing my husband just that little pressure hurts. Thinking it must be the cipro. just weird that has not before but body does change after going through the change. skin has always been sensitive. stress is making it all worse/read caffeine (if experiencing reaction) makes it worse. think too much of body to be shingles. laying off caffeine/stopped cipro to see if there is a difference. THANKS SO MUCH!!!! Really difficult when cause could be several things. when first dealing with something like this thought I was bitten by something. told shingles/other said too much of body.
I just went thru an amazing program to get rid of some allergies. This will sound like a quack treatment but over 200 medical practices use it now in the USA. Science is from Australia. I was getting incredible eye itching where I wanted to rip out my eyes. I went thru the Advanced Allergy Therapeutics testing, AAT, at my functional medicine MD's and they found I was allergic to a glue that I just started using on my body and they also found it was the blueberries I had started to eat larger amounts of that was causing it. It's a computer program with muscle testing. They can reprogram your body so you are not allergic to the found substances, I know that sounds amazing. I am better now after several treatments. See where they have this treatment near your city.
