I was given Cipro xl 1000mg on April 3 for a possible stomach infection.  I had severe stomach cramps and loose stools for 2 weeks prior.  After taking one pill, legs started to beak out with spots like a bug bite.  Within 8 hours the spots swelled and got big and red like a bee sting, and hurt the  same. My legs also swelled.  I went to emergency and was told to stop taking the cipro.  By April 8, the joints in booth legs and ankles were swelling.  I went to a local Dr. and he described Prednisone 5mg--2 tablets 3 times day for 3 day, then 2 tablets twice a day for 3 days, then 1 twice a day for 8 days.  Today my joints are still sore and believe I have tendeitis in my right ankle and the spots on my legs are hard lumps turning into bruised areas.  I am developing a new rash, on legs and arms which is very itchy
