Diana's Story
I was prescribed Cipro for a bacterial
infection. They think I ate some bad hamburger meat, I couldn't stay out of
the bathroom for days. So I start taking this medicine. Seemed to help in the first few days. But now I think its triggering migraines. I have vision episodes, then get a headache. This is a classic migraine with aura, but I shouldn't be having them every other day. I see this drug cause neuro problems so I have stopped taking it and I will be back at the doctors tomorrow. I just hope that this is where it ends. |
