    We should talk. I got floxed. Guess when... July 2021. I also had several doses of antibiotics before that. Your story is exactly like mine. I am still having issues as well but a lot better than i was.

    I honestly don’t understand why they keep giving these fluroquinolones out like it’s nothing. No warning from the Drs or Pharmacists. 😢 Sorry this happened to you and to all of us.

    I first and foremost wanna say sorry you had to go through this and are going through this . 27 pills of Cipro through 2 doses . All for a routine sinus infection . Still going through it til this day and I took this garbage back in September of 2020 . I'm left with facial twitching, heaviness in legs and arms daily brain fog , fatigue. That's just a few . Fortunately through it all I've never had pain . But honestly with some of the shit I've dealt with I would welcome pain over the symptoms I've dealt with . I live with stroke like symptoms on a daily basis but have had so many tests done and no stroke ever detected. Trouble walking is another issue . I'm able to walk but with the balance issues and heaviness in my legs it makes it difficult. Trying to relax is a huge remedy to this toxicity but it's easier said than done in the world we live in today. Also i have a 4yr old daughter so relaxing is very limited in my life . I would love to talk with you more if you're willing. I do not have any social media outlets but I do have email

    I was on 6-7 rounds of cipro and levaquin over course of a few years. I developed autoimmune neuropathy and chronic tinnitus. I think it’s a combo of antibx, coming off birth control pill and period of intense stress in my life. Trying to claw my way out of this for past four years. It has been a DARK period for me. I recently commenced a whacky regimen under the guidance a functional doctor and I’m sticking to it. This is my last hope before I succumb to big pharma’s pain management drugs. You have children so you must keep going every day, one day at a time, for them. Hopefully time and prayer will heal us!

    Sorry to hear all this, I know what it's like, I'm going on 9 years of this now but mine is nerve pain in the head and neck..
    Like you said, "all in your head", my doctor kept trying to say it's just anxiety and tried to prescribe me anti-anxiety medicine.
    I was given it for a "suspected" bladder infection. He prescribed leviquin first then a week later put a camera up my urinary track and found there was never an infection.
    When the pain is at it's most, I can't function at all, one time I was down for 91 hours...

    @ziggyflame6988 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    It took me two years to recover and I got all of the symptoms/problems and man I thought I was going to die. I took a lot of supplement but the secret is to do your research on the company of the supplements that you get. I took orthomega capsules, vitamin adk, complex b (vitamin b isn’t for everyone and for some it will trigger them and make them feel worse) magnesium, biocidin cuz I took a lot of antibiotics which created biofilms in my body because biofilms are created when you take a lot of antibiotics cuz both good and bad bacteria have been wiped out and so this slimy film is protecting these colonies of bad bacteria and antibiotics strengthens the biofilm rather than destroying it,which is why it’s a lie when people say that they can’t take antibiotics anymore cuz it doesn’t work cuz they took too many antibiotics,the problem is biofilms. I also did physical therapy,ozone therapy, colon hydrotherapy, cryotherapy which is cold therapy, red light therapy, vitamin c, essential oils, herbs, teas,Castor oil packaging, going out to get some sun and foot grounding, gut work,lots and lots of gut work.
    I also got Pfizer a few months before cipro and It also fucked me up cuz it messed me up and took me 1year to recover so getting the C shot twice messed me up but the second time I got the c shot was when I got the horrible problems. What helped me was prayer and trying to stay positive cuz man it ain’t no joke when it says suicidal cuz it really makes you feel suicidal. So listening to music and watching comedy videos really helped me. Also declaring vetting things over my life helped out. So once I got out of the suicidal phase due to the chemicals of cipro, I was able to think more clearly and I would declare things like I declare that I am not going to remain like this! I declare that I’m going to get out of this healthier and stronger! This was also a spiritual journey for me cuz I realized that I had so much trauma and I forgiveness in my life and all of that was causing my spirit to not be at peace which was also affecting me physically.Also avoiding certain over the counter drugs will help you out cuz right now your gut and body is super sensitive,so going natural by using natural things is best way to go. Also a lot of doctors are informed but they make their money by prescribing medication to people. It was created for chemo therapy but didn’t do so good which is why they decided to use it as an antibiotic. Also the fda hasn’t done anything about getting rid of cipro and it doesn’t make sense cuz a lot of people have been getting their attention about it

    Pee tests don’t tell everything. They need to send the tests to culture them. I get frequent UTI’s and get pee tested and they come back negative. Then they send the test out for culture and they come back positive and they give me the antibiotics that will cure that infection.

Nowhere online do they talk about how to counteract all the side effects except for this one comment. I’m already a carnivore and hopefully won’t experience all these horrors. Tell me, is this from experience? Did you also have a levofloxacin course and was cured by the meat? I would love to know.
