Took macrobid now feel like poop

I was prescribed macrobid for a UTI. The first 4 days I felt fine..but by day 5 I had and have had a scruciating headache..blurred vision..and just don't feel right. I finished medication almost a week ago but I still feel like shit..sitting.. anyone had a reaction like that to antibiotics and if so how long did the side effects last after you stopped taking them..I have health anxiety so I'm really freaking out thinking it gave me a tumor or something

Hello . I am sorry you been poorly . Would you say your are feeling any better or worse or about the same? . If you are not seeing any sign of improvement then I would go back to the doctor's have you every had side effects from medication before .? The medication should have a leaflet with it telling you what side effects you may have . Yes anxiety can make you feel worse but I think you would benefit from seeing your doctor . Take care

The antibiotic did NOT give you a tumor… if you’re still having symptoms of UTI call your Dr.

I'm feeling about the same..maybe a little better. I don't usually take meds because I always fear them but I had a bad uti so I had to take them..my uti is gone but the side effects are still there..I'm hoping they subside soon
