Just like you can get magnesium in your body transdermaly, these toxins use the same way.
A nice and safe experiment seems to bee: cut a piece of garlic in half and rub the cutsite of it on the underside of your feet. After half an hour,or an hour,other people can smell garlic in your breath.So: be aware of what you put ON your body as well as what you put in it by eating and drinking.

I served in the USAF. I was at Kelly afb and worked on East Kelly. Both are known to be very toxic. I was around radio active items in New Mexico. I went to Saudi Arabia twice, Kuwait and later to Iraq for the invasion. I was exposed to depleted uranium and god knows what else. Needless to say my health is in bad shape with all kinds of strange symptoms. The va did several test and told me that I was “exposed to an unidentified toxin”. That’s all I have been able to get from them. The answers are always vague.
I really need to find a doctor who would be willing to investigate my issues. I know that I am not alone and many veterans are suffering. I believe that depleted uranium will be the agent orange for my generation of veterans.
Which detox supplement could be used for mercury toxicity, if amalgam fillings are still present in the mouth?

Hey guys,
after thinking about it, I’m not going to take any drug to try to calm my fear of flying. Anyway, since in my town they recently opened a lot of CBD stores, I’m going to try again some CBD, maybe in stronger dosages, to see if it’ll calm me a little.
PS I’ve seen Lisa and other floxies mentioning The Golomb research group. I suggest anyone here, to google it and answer their questionnaire, if you already haven’t done yet.
If I remember correctly, they’re collecting informations about FQ adverse effects since 2014. Do it! It will cost you nothing and it’s very important. We’re all angry and wary about doctors, but sometimes there’re some of them that really try to change things for the better.

Does anyone take blood pressure medication? I haven’t been taking mine because I’m afraid of medicine now, but pressure getting higher. Had to take it today, but didn’t want to. What are the thoughts on this?

Alzheimer’s is on my fathers side. All the women died of that and the men, soon to include my dad, smoked themselves to death.
I had the SIBO test and it was negative. They said it was VERY CLEAN. I never pass intestinal gas and have major digestive problems with no hunger and very loose stools daily. I wonder it could be possible to have no intestinal bacteria, good or bad. Since going to the integrative internet, I
have been taking a good probiotic daily and my gas has come back. Could this be my problem from the antibiotic.

Random web browsing brought me to this site and I am full of feelings. I’m am saddened and angry that so many of you have had to go through this. I’m also full of awe and hope as I read all these inspiring stories. I personally have not been floxed, however I was prescribed Levaquin for mild pneumonia. Earlier today, I took my last pill from my 7 day regimen. I cannot believe how deadly this drug is. I am a 25 year old woman who just started my career as an RN and I can’t imagine going through what many of you have. I am worried that I might have been poisoned by this drug and I’m wondering if there are any suggestions on how to get the Levaquin out of my body and prevent long term side effects?

For anyone who might be interested here is the package insert for Leviqiun. Interesting how long and complicated it is. No wonder the average doctor never takes the time to read it AND BE INFORMED. https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2008/021721s020_020635s57_020634s52_lbl.pdf
Also interesting is how the side/after effects are dispersed throughout the insert and the serious ones are “called” rare.

Hey guys,
as you know, I’m going to London to speak at the EMA hearing. They’ll only give every speaker 5 minutes, to share his experience, so I?ll have to be very short and clear. I’m already preparing my speech, but a few suggestions would be appreciated.
I was thinking to organize the speech in this way : 1 My story (why I was prescribed a FQ, how the doctor acted etc.) 2 The side effects, the earliest and the latest, 3 The conclusion ( how FQ affected my life, my htoughts on the safety and what doctors should do.
What do you think about it?

Here is some interesting reading from Alison Vickery. It talks about cell danger response phases (and yes even mentions fluoroquinolones as a culprit!) http://alisonvickery.com.au/cell-danger-response/
