Started Ciproxin (ciprofloxacin) a year ago for pain and I am trying to work out whether what I am feeling now is tolerance or something else.
My pharmacist was more useful than the appointment, and it was a two minute conversation at the counter.
My skin, my sleep and my mood all respond to this, and my appointments only ever ask about the third.
What I was not prepared for is how much of this is administrative rather than clinical.
Has anyone else found a way to describe this that lands in an appointment?
Following this because I am in the same place and have no idea what to ask at the appointment.
Worth repeating that this is not medical advice and the answer often depends on who you are.
Is it normal to feel worse before better? Nobody told me that. Not on ciprofloxacin but the pattern is familiar.
The last ten percent of a taper takes as long as the first ninety. Nobody says so until you are in it.
Sorry for the basic question, but how do you actually start one of these diaries?
Everyone here blames the drug. Half the time it is the appointment schedule, not the molecule.
Same here.
Interdose restlessness is distinct from the original symptom and worth naming separately.
How do you tell the difference between the drug working and just a good week? Currently on ciprofloxacin myself.

Bring a list. Embarrassment makes everyone forget things, including you.
