I wonder what ever happened to the guy that wrote The Flox report…. or the floxed people in the anecdotal reports. I’ve tried to google info on him and I’ve had no luck. Maybe he recovered? Maybe he died? Maybe the drug companies put a hit out on him…. who knows. I’m curious.

I have a message from Lisa:
“I am well, I’m just on vacation in east Texas and have limited internet access. I can’t approve comments with more than two links until I get home. I will be home on Sunday.
I have been taking a break from commenting on floxie hope because my pelvis hurt and I wasn’t feeling very hopeful. Also, I needed a mental health break.
Feel free to tell others what’s going on.”
I hope she’ll feel better soon.

I would like to suggest that everyone take a break from posting about their own issues and/or sniping at each other about differences of opinion to send their good wishes and positive vibes to Lisa who is hurting right now. She has provided encouragement and moral support selflessly and tirelessly and deserves the same (in spades) from us now.

Hi I was floxed last month. 4 days of levaquin 750mg for a severe UTI. I knew about this awful medication and begged the doc to put me on something else. He said I would die if I did not take it. I believed him. I took it 4 days and started to get ankle pain. I stopped it and went to a homeopath who helped me clear it up. Now the poison levaquin is starting to take me out. I have pain all over, nausea, anxiety, palpitations, great fear and despondency. I need encouragement right now. I started all the supplements. I am a stay at home mom with two 12 year olds reeling from mom’s illness. I homeschool them and am of course petrified I will have to change things. I am looking for prayer too. I am 47 and was not strong to begin with but are really healthy. Now I can hardly eat. Thank you.

Hello everyone – I’m in an extremely strange situation. I’m 27 and took one (1) 500mg dose of Cipro for a UTI. Within 10 hours I felt tightness / soreness in my knees, ankles and elbows. Inadvisedly, I walked home from work (as I do every day). That was a week ago. Now I have tendonitis in both Achilles tendons. Sometimes I have pain / sensitivity behind my ankle, sometimes on my heel and sometimes in my calves.
My symptoms have improved somewhat a week on (no pain or burning when at rest), but I still basically can’t walk. I have my ankles wrapped and use crutches and taxis. I’m taking Magnesium supplements to try to speed recovery.
What can I do? I can’t accept that my life / lifestyle is over! I’m an active person and love to exercise, walk, be outside, hike and so forth. Surely a single 500mg Cipro pill can’t change that forever?! I’m frustrated and frightened.

I hope everyone is doing well. I’m in my six month now and vision, aches and pains are all so much worse. I’m trying to stay positive, but I’m extremely terrified and freaking out. This all started about 3 weeks ago, I went back to doing 25 min of intense yoga..have no idea if that’s the reason why?? Has anyone here got worse and worse, and then got better??

Hi Tricia. Yep, that would do it alright in my opinion. This is definitely a pattern as many Floxies go through this, there are several people here just in the last few pages experiencing this and it happened to some right around the same time frame ~ 6 months.
Please read through all my posts on this page, and maybe even some from last page to see why I believe this happens. This was my suspicion right from the start as logic and knowledge point directly to it, then I found supporting evidence to back it up and other sources agreeing with my theory. People can choose to do ‘nothing’ and wait it out, or they can choose to help the body heal in natural ways, and even help it detox when the timing and body are ready for that help. Good luck and don’t take any NSAIDS for sure

I wanted to share something that has and still is helping me that I think many others here could also benefit from, new and old Floxies, and I don’t remember anyone mentioning it in the last 5 pages.
We know that this drug we took causes lots of inflammation and also Oxidation damage (free radicals). I have addressed the free radical damage many times, anti-oxidants are critical in my opinion here, as well as things to help “soak up” the toxins, see my recent posts for specific suggestions.
Something that has not been talked about a lot is the inflammation part of it, and in particular in relating to Hydrotherapy. I mentioned this once but don’t think I expounded on it which I will do more now as I think its very important.
Hydrotherapy basically involves subjecting the body to hot and then cold water, potentially multiple times in a row, and if doing this in “pools” can also be accompanied by exercise. Many people go to Hospitals or buy expensive equipment in order to do this to help them with Arthritis or Rheumatic issues, and it can also help with many other things like: increase circulation, increase energy, detox toxins, soothe sore or inflamed muscles and joints, rehabilitate injured limbs, lower fevers, soothe headaches, promote relaxation, treat burns and frostbite, ease labor pains, and clear up skin problems. Sounds great for a Floxie doesn’t it? Read on.
A basic form of Hydrotherapy can also be done at home, please read this great article for more: https://healthfree.com/incurables_program_hydrotherapy.html They smartly mention NOT using toxic water with the usual junk in it, but unfortunately everyone’s water supply is bad and some like mine are worse than others and have Flouride elements in it which is really really bad for Floxies (there are some ways to help filter this stuff but you won’t get all of it esp the Fluoride it is terribly hard to remove). I did not let this stop me from enjoying some of the benefits however, I just think we have to be more cautious in the approach. (Note they don’t mention Sauna, but this is a really beneficial way to do the “hot” part of the therapy especially for Floxies who are ready for it, with the following caveat below…).
Here is one of my own personal cautions about this. I started having joint and tendon issues years ago (potentially a prior floxing) before my floxing of 3 months ago, which of course made those issues exponentially worse on top of adding many others. What I noticed also years ago, was that having hot showers or especially hot baths ALWAYS made these things worse. I can’t stress that point enough actually, I would have a 30 minute jacuzzi tub and immediately after many of my joints were inflamed and popping/cracking, and it would continue for days and potentially give me other unwanted effects to like being tired etc. The hot is great for relaxing sore muscles and maybe even tendons, but I find it very pro-inflammatory, which is really bad for a Floxie in general, and of course hot opens your pores more and now the biggest organ your body has (skin) is now absorbing the junk in the water at an even higher rate. So what I found is a hot tub is the worst, followed by a hot shower, and the Sauna is the least offensive in regards to these effects. A hot tub with Ancient Minerals Magnesium flakes or Epson Salts can still be useful I think (I also use Kwan Loon Oil which is a great Asian essential oil), and I still like to do this but I try to keep it short and done best if you follow with a cold shower.
What I have been doing for some time, and especially since being Floxed which I found has really helped is have my normal shower, but mostly stand out of the way of the water while scrubbing etc, endure a couple minutes of very warm to hot water, and then take in 3 or 4 minutes of cold water, and I put the water on the coldest setting and stick my arms and legs in that water for a couple of minutes. It has to be said, that this SUCKS! Its damn cold, and well, its not as fun as swimming in a lake 🙂 Note how refreshed you feel after swimming in a cool lake though? Similar kind of effect here, so it is actually worth that bit of suffering because in actuality, it is preventing other kinds of suffering like tendon pain, joint issues and more. It REALLY helps, in many of the ways that it is supposed to, and I find it even shuts off the Peripheral neuropathy I was experiencing, though my PN was very minor compared to others here. I have also been doing Sauna followed by cold shower and finds this helps greatly too, but beware that a Sauna can mobilize toxins and potentially bring out symptoms so not a good idea for all especially if you are not supplementing to deal with the repercussions of this.
Note that Johnathan from “The Fluoroquinolone Toxicity Solution Ebook” mentions that cold water (or ice water) therapy helps move bad blood out of areas like where you are having Tendonitis, and helps to reduce inflammation, so another reason to focus on the “cold part” of the therapy and this is one of his top recommendations that you see on his website etc. I don’t think he even recommends using hot water at all (IIRC) and probably for reasons I noted, the cold is much more beneficial esp for us. I have been filling my sink with cold water and sticking ice packs in it (he also recommends this) and dipping my arms and feet/ankles in this water and find it helps a lot, I wish I could get more of my leg in there, a bucket would be much more effective here but I don’t have one yet.
I hope some of you will try this and report your findings to others. Hope it helps
A lot of people ask me about genetic issues related to FQ toxicity. I honestly don’t have many answers for you, because my brain is currently full of other stuff / I haven’t researched genetic markers much yet, but Suzy Cohen has and she mentions FQs in this interesting post – http://suzycohen.com/articles/snpsmethylation/. The site that she mentions for interpreting 23andme genetic test results, http://www.mthfrsupport.com, is also run by people who understand FQ toxicity.
It’s really awesome that Suzy said this about FQ toxicity in her post, “Avoid fluoroquinolone drugs if you have a SNP in CYP1A2 (like me) because these drugs are strong inhibitors of the gene and the drug will build up quickly. Strong inhibitors reduce You don’t want to get yourself “floxed” trust me! So unless you have a life-threatening infection, I’d avoid ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin and the rest of the clan in that drug category.”

To Rene or Other Magnesium People-
1. How long would it take to correct a magnesium deficiency? I’ve researched this but not discovered anything yet. My sense is that it takes months to correct at the cellular level.
2. Does anyone have opinions on ionic magnesium?
Thank you!

I love to hear recovery stories and even comments about improvement down the line. It’s all very hopeful. But it seems these glimpses of hope are from people suffering mild to moderate reactions. Does anyone recover from a severe reaction? Meaning that during their 6 month mark, they get worse, and then eventually recover?? Most all stories I read people have a turnaround at 6 month, not get worse, like me. I only work part time and feel i have to quit, its all getting too much and too painful. I eat organic, no grains, supplement like crazy w magnesium of all forms…have tried acupuncture, iv therapy, prayers, ozone therapy….nothing seems to make any difference. Ugh! Something has to give!!!

I was floxed a couple of months ago for a “sinus infection” that has now turned out to be a sinus tumor. The doctors are talking about radiation and chemo. Everything I look up about chemo is going to be hell for a floxie like me. Even the PET scan uses a flouride tracer
Does anyone have any experience with floxing and chemo? I need advice quickly as I have to make some tough decisions.

I just found this website today after being prescribed Cipro for a UTI. I have been taking 250mg for 5 days. I feel weird. My period is late – I dont think I’m pregnant. I can’t believe this is going on and they are still prescribing this drug. I didn’t like it from the start. I could tell it was strong while at the same time not working very well. My UTI is not gone and it was a very mild one and there is no way I am ever taking this again.
Is there anything I can immediately do to cleanse this out of my system. I took a pill this morning. I threw the rest of the bottle in the trash and I am really freaked out. I didnt sleep last night at all before I found this. I thought it was from the antibiotic so I started researching it and I couldn’t believe what I found.
Is there anything that can immediately be done to try to stop this from happening? Thanks,
Brooke
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYWcgL6tn0U a lot of testemonies here that it can heal cancer patients .. we all know that we can develop cancers by exposing too much chemical including this synthetic drugs ..please watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVslIojQUwo and can you leave any opinion guys
