Cipro and cipro xl

Had My gall bladder removed in April 2007 and I was fine for months I had more back pain and went in for a cat scan and they said I have a Kidney stone and I was put on Cipro XL 1000MG for 7 days ever since now I have yellow liquid coming out of my backside all day and I have really Loose Diarrhea, Does anyone else have these symptoms from taking this??

My experience is also not a good one. At the end of June 2007 I was prescribed Cipro XL 500mg for 3 days for a bladder infection, at an immediate care clinic. Over the next two weeks I experienced abdominal inflammation to the point I looked 6 months pregnant. I returned to the same clinic where I was again prescribed Cipro XL but this time 1000mg for 14 days and waited for a urine analysis to come back. As this showed no infection I was told to continue the CIPRO and contact my gynocologist who could find nothing wrong. I was sent for abdominal and pelvic ultrasounds. Both came back clear but I was still in considerable pain and the inflammation had not gone down but was worse. In addition I was constipated constantly, a problem I had never had. From my gynocologist I was sent to my family doctor. Blood work was done as well as a barium enema. Nothing found, everything normal. As at this point, October 3rd I was having constant diarrhea with blood I was sent with a stool culture. Cipro XL has caused me to have a strain of C-difficile. As the diarrhea has stopped my family doctor feels I should not be given medication (not antibiotics) to clear the virus. With lots of fluids, probiotic yogurt, etc it will take time but it will go away. I will just have to put up with the cramping, bloating, head aches and general malaise I have felt since it was prescribed at the end of June. I only hope anyone prescribed CIPRO XL will think twice before taking it and perhaps request a different medication. There are others.

I was prescribed Cipro XL 1000 x1 per day for 14 days for a first time acute prostae infection. First night felt a little dizy and moderately depressed. After a few days I noticed that when I was waking up I felt like I was having a mildly nervous twitchy feel. After a week or so I started to have unexplainable arm pain deep in what I now know as to being a tendon. Near the end of my treatment the soles of my feet started hurting regardless if I am standing or sitting. My hands feel stiff and sore however they do in the morning anyways, but the palms of my hands have a tingly burning feel to them as well. About 2 days after finsihing the Cipro I had one of the worst nightmares of my life, and 2 days of headaches, and more depressive moments resulting in making crazy statements to family and friends.
Its been 7 days since I finished the Cipro now and my arm is about 75% better but my feet are still very sore with a burning feel.
I'm 49 with no chronic illnesses and in excellent physical condition. I have never had a reaction to anything before and am not allergic to anyhting that I know of.
I sure hope that this drugs side effects are not long lasting and or life altering in a negative way ?
In my opinion this is a drug that should only be given when absoulutely nessasary
Take care
