On a 10 day dose for diverticulitis and only 2 days left. I am still in agony with a pain in my lower back left side, near to where the kidneys are. I don't know if this is a side effect of the Cipro or is it that this tablet isn't clearing my infection. The pain is really bad, other pain I have while on this tablet is under my left ribs, feels like a tennis ball is stuck in me. I am new to this awful diverticulitis issue, only had it once before. I just want to know whats going on with these pains. Is it the Cipro causing these or is it that the Cipro isn't curing my diverticulitis

Anne; Yes that can be from the Cipro and you should ask the doctor about it, they are finding with these type of antibiotics it can cause some bone pain etc that does not always go away as fast as the reason they are using it for. so be careful. call your doctor.
