Side effects of flaggyl

I am supposed to start flaggyl very soon. Can I get some feedback on how people are doing being on it? Any side effects?
 
I was on Flagyl a few years ago. Everyone is different but I had to give it up. It caused me to feel numbness in my hands. Like I said before, everyone is different. Others may have different results.
 
I also was getting some neuropathy symptoms like Ron described above. This didn't happen the first time I was on it though which was only for about 2 weeks for C-Diff. The second time I was on it recently I started getting tingling and numbness in my hands and then we stopped it immediately and it went away. I hope flagyl can help with what ever you are taking it for!
 
I am currently on it and have been on it a few times before now. I have only had minor side effects. The most common one being metallic taste in my mouth and some nausea. Nothing major at all.
