I had to take Cipro and now all my joints hurt (quit taking it Sunday). I hope I do not have permanent tendon damage from this drug on top of the fibro. I am drinking Aloe Vera juice and Reliv Fiberstore for fiber. I need to start my nortriptyline for the fibro but it is cosntipating so don't know what to do. Full of yeast too. I ate yogurt during the antibiotics but still have the yeast. I cannot totally avoid sugar as I only weigh 100 pounds and my doctor wants me to drink Ensure for weight gain. Anybody have any side effects from Cipro?
