Have Had Bronchitis, Cough, Neck And Collarbone Pain, Sleeplessness. Started Z Pack. What Is Going On?

Have had bronchitis...started with a zpack and after 10 days they gave me levaquin. Though I still have some cough, I've got severe pain down the sides of my neck, collarbones and shoulders. Could it be the levaquin or just from coughing....having horrible trouble sleeping from the head/neck pain and NOT the cough.....thanks.

Welcome to HCM.It would help if you took a NSAID like ibubrufen/Lornoxicam for the pain,use of codiene may also help with the pain and act as a cough suppressant.You need to discuss this with your doctor who can examine you and prescribe the proper drugs for the cough as well as the myalgia.
