The Antibiotic Bactrim?

I was on Batrim for 2 months for acne and thought I was finished but when i recently went back to my dermatologist he said i wasn't finished yet, I still had 3 months worth to take.
Well I was off of it for a week and just started it back up again and one hour after taking them my tongue and mouth feel a little numb, my heart races, and I get really tired and jittery.
My question is could it be the Bactrim? I was on it for 2 months and didnt have any problems and was only off of it for a week so please let me know what you think. I do eat before I take them! Oh and my sinuses seem to get worse when taking Bactrim.
I just don't want anything serious to be going on.
Thank You so Much!

No doctor in their right mind would prescribe Bactrim for 5 months straight. You need to see a second opinion and get off the antibiotic ASAP!
