ANTIBIOTIC WARNING
Cipro, Levaquin, Avalox, nearly every generic ending in “quin”, “oxacin,””ox,”…are all part of a large family of antibiotics called “Flouroquinolones.” The FDA finally updated their warning on these antibiotics as of July 2016. They site “multiple system damage that may be irreversible.
Permanent.
Here is the link for the warning:
https://www.fda.gov/Drugs/DrugSafety/ucm500143.htm.
In 2010, I took Cipro for a UTI and it changed my life forever. A round of antibiotics literally changed the path I was walking, into a path that I couldn’t even crawl on. Multiple spontaneous tendon and ligament ruptures, spinal degeneration, and arthritis that is widespread. This includes multiple joint dislocations and surgeries to most of my large joints and spine. I've endured twenty surgeries in the last seven years.
This class of antibiotics were supposed to be only used as a last resort, if all other options had failed. They were not supposed to be given for common infections. They damage the body so seriously because they actually damage the DNA mitochondrial repair cells, the cells that are supposed to heal any damage to the body.
These drugs damage the cells that are supposed to repair damaged cells and tissue. So…you can only heal tissue to the integrity it was when it fell apart. You now have tissue paper tendons and ligaments. You are a human piñata at a party and life is whacking you left and right.
Flouroquinolones also cross the blood brain barrier. This can result in psychiatric events, depression, and suicidal thoughts, and the damage is cumulative.
The more exposures you have to these antibiotics, the more damage is done to your body. Not just for some people, ALL people--a hundred percent of people who take a Flouroquinolone antibiotic, show changes in blood flow to the tendon, cartilage, and ligament in their bodies.
Each person has a different breaking point depending on their own unique DNA. Some people fall apart or die after one pill and some people are on their 25th round and are still oblivious to what is happening inside them until they break.
It might be a physical event, but It may be a psychotic one. By then, it will be too late because the damage will be done.
There is no cure and no treatment and no relief. If it hadn’t been for the knowledge that God is ever present…I would have given up. He is my hope through this storm.
Please educate yourself and your families. Don’t take that antibiotic in ignorance one more time. Don’t take chances. Don’t be afraid to demand an alternative. You get only one life.
If you take a Flouroquinolone by choice, please stop! There are alternatives.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is advising that the serious side
effects associated with fluoroquinolone antibacterial drugs generally
outweigh the benefits for patients with sinusitis, bronchitis, and
uncomplicated urinary tract infections.
