pelvic inflammatory disease
"I was prescribed 500mg, 2x daily for 7 days for Pelvic Inflammatory infection not related to an STD. Prior to this diagnosis it was believed to be UTI so I was given 3 days of Cipro with no side effects or relief. I had debilitating pain in my right hip, pelvis, low back and ovaries when I was seen. On day 5 of Metronidazole treatment my pain decreased. but the 3rd day in thru now (2nd day off) I have horrible taste in my mouth, cannot tolerate heat without almost fainting, have fatigue (caffeine no help), sweating (air conditioning no help), joint pain and mental agitation and overall sick feeling. The plus side is that the pain is gone so hopefully I will return to normal soon."
