Headache/ stiff neck at the back , dull headache behind the eyes

Hey i was wondering if anyone had the same symptoms as im getting , basically i went to the doctors because i started to get a back pain  in the kidney areas also a bad headache with it , although my urine test came back negative , the urine showed smoky green colour aniwais they gave me antibiotics called ciprofloxacin, but lately all ive been getting is these symptoms : first i wake up and i feel dizzy like a mild dull headache at the back of my eyes and a stiff neck at the back of my neck and head , making me feel quite dizzy and unbalanced , also if noticed that im getting like leg cramps and sometimes joint pain in my knees , also sometimes when im still or lying down i notice i get muscle spams and jerking , also my jaw can at times ( but i have braces and could have something to do with that) also my tongue can feel quite heavy , and my chest feels tight at times , im wondering if these symptoms could be because of anxiety , also the headache like ive seen the term before could be tension headaches? , ive had these symptoms for about a week now , but ive never felt something like this before , could it all be to do with the supose infection? im really confused and quite depressed because i cant seem to find an answer
let me know if anyone knows anything thanks!!

Hi,
How are you? Common side effects associated with Ciprofloxacin include diarrhea; dizziness; headache; loss of appetite; nausea; stomach upset; and vomiting. Your symptoms may be due to this medicine or art of the infection that you have. Try not to worry to avoid anxiety. If it persists inform your doctor for proper management. Take care and do keep us posted.

You may want to talk to your Doctor again.  You may want him to rule out spinal meningitis or some other continuing infection.  Good luck
