So, just yesterday morning finished 3 days of this for suspected UTI. I feel beyond dreadful. Headache,
glaring colours, nausea etc. I also had migraine earlier in the week so could be the remnants of that. Has anyone experience with this antibiotic?

Very late response to this but yes, I'm currently on Macrobid and my God, I feel dreadful. Sick, intense headache, stiff and painful neck and shoulders. I could cry, I'm so uncomfortable and in so much pain.

Have you been taking it after a meal as if not this is when it can give you symptoms?

I took it just before a meal. I've just finished the course and my God, I feel like a different woman! I'm never taking it again, the headache I had was indescribable, like my head and neck were being crushed. And I felt so sick, I couldn't eat anything. So relieved it's gone! Thank you for your reply and advice @igotdemons
