"I have a pretty mean case of cellulitis. I was prescribed Cipro 2x daily. The first day I took it, some of the redness seemed to lighten up, my body had aches all over, but I was still willing to proceed to get rid of the deep, nasty pain of the infection. Cannot use NSAIDs on Cipro - so Tylenol 4 times daily it was. Tylenol only worked about 2 hours, and the pain was back plus. 3 days in, the redness was growing and an ulcer had now formed. I kept taking it. I called my doctor on the 6th day and was told to keep taking the Cipro. 8 full days and 1 half day later, I was in the ER. They scanned my leg, an abscess was forming. WBC is higher than the previous week - it is doing nothing but making more pain all over my body. D/C Cipro and now on to Cephalexin 500 mg 4 times a day. Man, I hope something works fast!"
