I was diagnosed with prostatitis and given a 23 day course of cipro.  The Dr. advised me NOT TO STOP even if I felt better due to the nature of my diagnosis.  After 5 days on Cipro I started suffering side-effects.  The Dr. did not take advise me on any side-effects at all, not a single one to look for.  I called and asked to speak with my Dr.  They said she was on vacation.  They advise a doctor would review my case and call me.   They said stop taking the medicine, I told them I already had for 3 day and that I still have they same symptoms.(23 day course of antibiotics)  They advised to wait some more time.  I said that doesn't make sense when my Dr. strongly advised I don't stop the medicine EVEN IF I FELT BETTER, which I clearly told them I DIDN'T FEEL BETTER.  I asked for a different antibiotic to treat my ailment.  They did nothing for me other that advise that my Dr would be back from vacation in a week.  I waited....  I called back today and more incompetent staff  handling my phone calls.  I asked to have the Dr call me, they said to come into the office.  I don't need to come into the office, have the Dr call me.  These people are morons!!  Its simple, I stopped taking the prescIribed medicine 5 days into a 23 day regimen.  I asked for an alternative to be prescribed and I got a bullsh!t run around with nobody wanting to take responsibility.  The day my Dr. returns from vacation I make request for a call back and they again refuse stating I need to return for an appointment!!  WTF is a matter with these idiots.  If your reading this please note, THE DR NEVER CALLED BACK, NEVER ACKNOWLEDGE MY REQUEST and WENT AGAINST HER OWN GOD DAMN MEDICAL OPINION!!!\n\nPeople is plain and simple, if you value your health, you value your time stay away from this archaic practice.  I'm mulling over a medical malpractice...only after speaking with another doctor about the ordeal I've gone through.
