I know that change can be hard but the all new Floxie Hope will have new features and a fresh new look. The new site will have all the exsisint comments, content and posts. Although they will be in a new formart I hope that the new site will bring us together like Floxie Hope has always done.
The new website will have a much needed “facelift” with some new features like podcasts, videos and support groups. However if you would like to still see the orginal homepage click the button below. Also if you have any suggestions or advice for me on the site please reach out.
Be sure to sign up for our email list below to get updates on the new podcast episodes, helpful blog posts, recovery stories and our new online support group by filling out the form below. I hope this new chapter of Floxie Hope will excite you and keep the hope in our community alive.
Hi, My name is Jason and I am a "Floxie" too. My mission is to help others, share knowledge and awareness with Floxie Hope. Join me in my mission to spread hope for those affected.
Jason. I find it impossible to email you or find any way to reach you specifically. Could you please post an email address that actually works? Jason@floxie hope is all over the sites but useless to use or connect with.
Jason. Are you collecting data on vaccines for floxies? Some mitochondrial specialists have fears about the messenger RNA alternatives for our group. I think this is important.
Yes, I am trying to find info about this too – it’s super important. I’m Greg from “Greg’s Story” BTW. I am thankfully pretty much recovered, but like most of us I haven’t taken a single pharmaceutical since I got floxed. If not for Covid I wouldn’t even be considering it. I hope we can get some clarity about these various vaccines.
Greg. Jason seems not to be replying to this important question about vaccines. Too bad it’s an essential question that we should all receive email about. I tried the blog Jason said he was preparing ….. nothin about vaccines.
My wife and I are expecting the birth of our child so I am preoccupied at the moment. I personally do not have any information on the vaccine at the moment sorry.
There are contact forms on the site. In the menu you will find a direct link. Have you tried that? I’m getting about numerous emails daily so I know that it is working. Also on the homepage there is about us section where you can also find a contact us button. I hope that helps.
Just sharing this – the J&J vaccine does not use the RNA messenger approach – it is a more traditional adenovirus vector vaccine. Who knows which would be safer: https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2021/02/28/johnson-and-johnson-covid-vaccine/
David,
I agree the vaccine question is important. However, as this is a big experiment on how something that affects DNA/RNA will affect all the different preconditions people have, we will not have the data we need for years. Five years is a good target as I plan on living more than 5 years.
I have decided I will not take this new type of vaccine rather I will take the Johnson and Johnson as it is a weakened version of the CV-19 virus. I have taken Zinc and L-Lysine and have not had the common cold for 40 years and only the flu once. That flu rolled right over my one-pill-a-day and I took 4 to start feeling an improvement.
I need to be vaccinated for business travel otherwise I would just stick my anti-virals. When I get vaccines I take them and two weeks later I will take Clinoptilolite to remove the heavy metals – Aluminum and Mercury. J and J claims there is no mercury in their vaccine. These heavy metals are anti-viral, that is why they are in there (not a persevative). You are used to the lies the Pharms spin.
In 6 weeks or so I post my experience.
In other news I am subject to food intolerance – gluten and soy. This has prevented me from recovering for the increased diabetes caused by the antibiotics. It also turns out it plays a major role in my poor organ health that has me running 3 degrees below normal.Thanks to experiments trying to remove the Clindamycin I had to take in November, I have learned several,things.
All antibiotics will set me back. They vary in the ease of removal. The Clindamycin is the most difficult to remove, I have encountered. I was close to hospice on January 24th. Then I finally started to improve.
Everything that Removes the gluten-antibody dried stored complex makes mucus at the storage site. This clogs up the organs so they cannot get the nutrients it needs to function.
I have learned how to remove them and how to control the rate of removal. I am now, just one month later running only 0.5 degrees cold – a major improvement. My blood glucose is still high but in the last 4 days it has dropped 20 points. That is record decline and I feel much mor energy and am not tired any more. I can be alert, productive, no brain fog from 6 AM to 10 PM. Some days I need to rest for an hour around 4 PM with my feet up no more afternoon naps. I could be down below 100 in a month. We’ll see. Maybe I have another restriction.
Boron chelates solubize rheology gluten junk very quickly – too quickly. The mucus can flood my lungs and is difficult to cough up. I use Redoxa to help expell it. Magnesium Chloride foot soaks remove this stuff at an easy to manage rate. Both will create this mucus in your intenstines make your stools greasy. Any organ improvement supplement does the same. The mildest was Liverwurst or Braunsweiser.
I have gone from not being able to tolerate Brainsweiser to earring 8 ounce a week and can tak 1/4 pill,of of adrenal gland. the brain stored glucose level controls blood glucose. After this removal has run its corse, there is a long list of supplements that are touted to help brain fog and reduce blood glucose.
Finally it seems this is the new area for posting question and offering suggestions. Does any body know how to access the old blog. I find navagating this new site very difficult. I have to write down the step to reach this part of site.
Bye for now,
John Taylor – ain’t dead yet.
I think Jason likely doesn’t have any more info that the rest of us, because, there really isn’t any–these vaccines are too new. And there’s really no data about vaccines for floxies anyway!
I so far have spoken with 2 healthcare professionals both who are very attuned to the floxie situation (rare, I know). Both said they themselves do not intend to get the vaccine yet. There is simply no data (and we know how far we can trust the pharma companies with their “testing” and “studies”).
Some ideas/suggestions that came out of my discussions: Wait as long as possible before you get it if you must, see what new data is avail. See if an enlightened doctor can give you an “exception” for not taking the vaccine, stating that due to this pre-existing condition, the risk from the vax may be greater than the risk of covid for you (depends on how at-risk you may be otherwise of course). If you must get a vaccine, see if a doctor can give you a very small dose as a test, and wait some time to see how you react.
I too want to get a better sense of the different risk from the different types of vaccines. Your thinking about the J&J one does make sense to me, because it is a more tested approach. But what else is in that vaccine? The RNA ones actually have very few ingredients. Some other vaccines have all kinds of crap in them. The shingles vaccine for example has an antibiotic in it.
I hope we don’t get to where it will be mandatory for travel, work, etc., the whole “vaccine passport” idea. I’m no anti-vaxxer, but heck these companies already poisoned me once, I don’t want to be forced to give them another shot(no pun . . .).
Personally, I intend to wait as long as possible, and see how it goes out there before making any decisions.
I’m hoping to get more evidence of symptoms from floxies following their vaccine injections.
John Taylor … About accessing the old blogger page. Open the page that says Floxiehope the original home page and comment forum. Once there look in the lower left corner for “FLOXIE HOPE HOME PAGE”. Click on it and when that page opens scroll down until the blogs begin to show. It appears that few have found this because there are no new posts.
About the vaccines…… Since my stint with them when I was in the USAF I have stayed away from vaccines and plan to continue that idea. If this experiment with the idea of messing with RNA does not go well long term we are going to have a world filled with some sick people.
Or one can click in the top menu: “OTHER RESOURCES” -> “ORIGINAL FLOXIEHOPE HOMEPAGE”. Direct link is https://floxiehope.com/home-2/ so you open it and add to your bookmarks. Scroll down to comments. There are some new posts there. See you there 🙂
Thanks for sharing the link and helping others find the page. I truly appreciate it.
hey give Jason a break. He is not God or even has direct access to his knowledge. Only God knows how these vaccines will play out. This is a tried for-the- first-time technology. The new vaccines are a crap shoot.
John Taylor … And I hope that the “crap shoot” does not play out the way Fluoroquinolones have for millions of people world wide.
Whew just looked for floxie hope had not popped in for a while could not find it- so glad that it is still up and runing!! It dang near saved my life when I was posioned by levofloxcian almost 300 days ago- I am a lot better now thank you and god bless you best of luck in your new adventure Lisa- more power to the new board and jason! Best to everyone thank you for Flxie hope it really saved me and gave me hope in the dark days when I first got knocked down by the poison RX- thenks for helping!
I am so happy this site gave you hope and information to help your healing journey.
Hey John, I don’t have any censors or blocks on the comments. Not sure what you are seeing?
I’m not getting notifications when a new post shows up on the home page conversations? I used to get a notification for every post? Also I can’t find a comment tag on the new recovery stories only a “like” icon?? Sorry for the complaining but I’m getting frustrated.
Please scroll to the bottom of the site and subscribe. Once you get signed up you will get all the notifications from us. Also new recovery stories use the tag stories or recovery and you can use that term in the search box above.
Jason. I did scroll down and subscribe. Still not getting home page notifications?? For example I didn’t get a notification that you responded to my previous comment?? I’m confused on your answer for commenting on a recovery story?? Why is there simply not a comment icon at the bottom of each story?? It is so EASY to respond. I’m not that computer smart to understand all the different navigating involved. Simplicity is best for all of us, especially us more mature floxies that struggle more with new technology.. I would also like to make a suggestion…. it would be so much easier and convenient if the recovery stories were all listed together instead of mixed in with other blogs. On the old site they were in one long column listed in chronological order and assigned a number. The title of the story was also posted which sometimes would resonate with a particular Floxie to pull up. Now we have to scroll through every recovery story plus other blogs to explore them. There are over 100 stories of hope. When they were listed in one long column they were so easy to scroll through. I would also refer to a story number when suggesting to another Floxie to read. Is there any way you can return the recovery stories to that format?? It really was so simple and time consuming to follow when you wanted to scroll the stories. “Simple” is the key to all floxies to access this site. I hate to keep complaining but this site is so very important to so many of us. Thanks for considering my suggestion.
Hey Dee, we are using the same comment system as the original website. The only thing that has changed is the layout. When you comment make sure you check the following boxes.
1.Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
2.Notify me of new comments via email.
3.Notify me of new posts via email
I have tested this and it works perfectly. I hope this helps you. If you want I can make a video to show you how this feature works.
Hey Dee, to answer your first question about the comments. All the comment boxes are listed under every story and blog post. I had a team verify this as well as all comments from the old site which transferred over. So at the bottom of 134 recovery stories they are there and working. Also all the recovery stories are listed here and the most recent are at the top in descending order please click here https://floxiehope.com/fluoroquinolone-recovery-stories/ if you need to create a video of contact you directly to help you I will of needed.
Jason. I do check all the boxes when sending a comment etc.
I just can’t find a “comment” icon at the end of the story to click on when reading a recovery story? There is only a “like” icon at the bottom of the story. Very confusing. Wondering also what your thoughts were to my suggestion to put all recovery stories in one long column numbered and titled like the old Floxie hope site???
All the stories are listed here https://floxiehope.com/fluoroquinolone-recovery-stories/ and there is a menu link to view them. Everything is working fine on that page as well.
Dee,
You aren’t the only one. We may have to exchange emails or setup another blog.
If you want I would be happy to contact you or do a video on instructions on the new site. I am sure I can find time this week to help you in any way I can.
John Taylor, I’m hoping that Jason will work through some of these issues that are making the website difficult to navigate. I have tried to inform him of problems I’ve run into along with suggestions so I hope he will try and make things easier for us and especially new floxies to navigate this site. I think he is trying but this new site is especially hard to navigate. Fingers crossed it will get some more improvements
Dee,
I think we just have to wait. It seems Jason is not the code writer. Given his background, that would be unlikely.
So who ever writes this code did a loT of work for tHese changes and shorT of just uploading the original code, iT is Going tO take a while.
John Taylor
Hey Jason,
I found it in another series of posts. It wasn’t in the area I was responding. The site often changes to,a different page for no,reason I know. Then it is hard to,get back to,where I was. Sorry I was quick to criticize.
Is there anyway I can post and make sure Andrea gets a notice?
Hey John, you will have to reply to any of her comments and she will get a notice of subscribed. I am using the same exact system as Lisa had on the old site.
Jason,
There is no,link to the old blog under other resources.
I have made important findings that I know would help Andrea and others but can’t communicate with them.
As you have censored my last post, I just have to comment. Your avitore looked like an angry dominating face. You may want to change that.
The font size and color, light gray, very hard to read for Some of us with eye damage . Any chance you can up the font size and use black instead of gray?
Sure I can make it dark black. Please give me a moment to change
Jason…… What are you doing about making it where all the old members can see posts that they exchanged in recent years without the 23,000 plus that appear before them? Fix it!!!!
We are working to fix this however is is a problem with the software and the developer is working on it now.
Why my previous comment are now deleted?
No comments were ever deleted. Please elaborate? Also you can subscribe to the site to see your comment history.
Andrea,
If I respond here. Do you get it?
Guys, I need some support. I probably had some minor tear in my patellar tendon today – I was just walking, not longer than average. It’s now hurtful and red. It’s been 5th month since floxing. I thought the damage is less likely to happen that late. But now I read that some people encounter ruptures even a year after FQ administration. A guy I read article about had his first rupture after 11 months, followed by other ruptures and now is in the wheelchair.
I’m so worried about that. I only took 7 pills of Cipro but with steroid. I did not notice any major improvement in these 5 months. The hair is still falling out in handfulls. I guess my collagen synthesis mechanism is broken. I don’t know what to do. Avoiding activity leads to weak muscles and tendons and it can also cause a rupture indirectly. But the activity is the direct cause of rupture. Will I always have to live in the fear of rupture? To be honest, it’s not life anymore… Not only every step is hurtful but the fear of ruptures in the future makes me want to give up completely… I know there are disabled people and they live but I really don’t want that… And the lack of stability is the worst – I thought I’d be calm at nearly half year out, but the risk of rupture is still very present 🙁
I feel so bad mentally… Please help.
John, I suggest you to contact Dr Neal Millar, rememebr him? I’ve posted a video with him a few days ago. He’s an orthopedic surgeon who knows very well how FQs can damage us. Try to contac him, maybe by email.

John,
Buy some magnesium chloride on Amazon and make a saturated solution (solid salt on the bottom of the bucket) stick,your foot in it for a half hour. While,doing this,wipe a face cloth over all the skin you can reach. This will raise the Mg ion level,in your blood and remove the Cipro so you can start repairs. It takes 4 days. I’d love to blog here more but this blog is so flaky now, am am not sure the posts will be available. Anyway all,the old posts I put up,on this blog can’t be found now. However, I have written a book 90 kindle page with all that I knew when I started blogging. It only costs $10 and describes a repair sequence that is wise to follow. The Healthy Truth by John Taylor
Cipro brought me to deaths door 6 times but I learned how to avoid that. So the protocol starts with Magnesium salts. I use three pills Mgmalate, glycinate, and taurate. These will not give you diarrhea. They bring the magnesium to different places in your body. You can also wipe this MgCl on and tendon that feels weak. It is not the full repair but a start so avoid force on the tendon until you get to point where you are building new tendon material.
Good luck,
John Taylor
@Andrea, thanks for the idea, I’ve contacted him but didn’t get a reply. Fortunatelly I’ve found some other orthopedic surgeon in Poland who knows about Cipro and he treated similar patients already. But I have to wait for the visit.
@John Taylor, thanks for your answer, I’m already using MgCl in spray. However I’ve noticed rash lately on my legs after using it in one or two spots and it pinches a lot – I have various allergies and my skin doesn’t like many things.
I’ve been taking lactate in pills and now I’ve added chloride. I’m buying these because they’re sold here as drugs, not supplements so their quality is better. I’m about to get additional malate but as a supplement. Do lactate, chloride also work?
And I’m also about to buy magnesium sulfrate to take baths and foot soaks. Will it be ok instead of MgCl?
I’ve also added some magnessium-rich food to my diet, so, my current amounts looks like this:
200mg MgLactate, 100mg MgChloride, 300mg in diet, some spray on legs – twice a day.
When I’ll buy more suplements, I’m gonna add like 100/200mg of MgMalate and these foot soaks. So it will be 800mg orally + skin. Will it be enough?
BTW. I’m taking vitamin D, 5000UI, but every two days. I know it uses some magnesium, but I really don’t want to get Covid.
When I’ll get better, if your advices work, I WILL buy your book as a thank you, however, to be honest right now I don’t have as much money to spend as I’d like – I’m not able to work. So you can guide me generously if you know how to.
Nothing under 800 mg magnesium bis glycinate a day. Start now . You are nowhere near what mitochondrial specialists say you should be taking.
John,
As the spray is stinging your skin. Dilute it until it doesn’t. This is concentration difference thing. A high difference is irritating. When your internal magnesium is brought up, your skin will be less sensitive. Our feet are the least sensitive parts so foot soaks are good.
Taking MgCl orally risks diarrhea. It is best acquired through the skin.
magnesium sulphate or Epsom salts is a milder salt that Mg Cl and much cheaper. you need both plus you can take Mg malate, glycinate and taurate internally.
MgCl has a much higher so solubility compared to Mg sulphate. I use separate buckets so I can keep the concentration where I want it. If I put both in the same bucket the Mg CL gets used up first and I can’t tell that.
I think you magnesium acquisition is low. Foot soaks can give you[ 20 grams daily.your less than 3?
As long as you have any sign of muscle, tendon, arthritis pain, Vitamin D can make matters worse because it is using the Magnesium elsewhere. It is best to hold off on vitamin D until these things are better. However Vitamin D is used for tendon and cartilage repair, so,as,soon as your muscles are OK, then start the Vitamin D again. You have to,adjust the dosage so,as,not to,become,Mgndefficient again.
Reaoringmor,growing tendon and cartilage is too complex to write on the blog.
COVID is better avoided with an antiviral. I use zinc and L-lysine. The publicity doesn’t mention these because big pharma can’t make money from them. I use them and have not had the flu or a common cold for 40 years. Wish I knew an anti-bacterial so I didn’t have to learn about being a Floxie. I use Vodka topically. If I have oral surgery, I soak that area as soon as I am out of the office and for days afterward. It also kills gingivitis.
Lactate and chloride are negative ions. Cipro is removed with positive ions. MgCl is nest but as a Floxie you will,be very low,in Magnesium so,start with magnesium sulphate from a tolerance point of view.
Money? Tell me about it. I have lost time and medical bills over the last four years that total $65,000. My net worth is -$42,000 currently, but I am alive. This is why I blog – to help other people with their specific questions. If I knew how to manage magnesium right from the beginning I wouldn’t be in this spot. The upside is I will escape the death by western medicine issue my classmates are all facing. I expect to live to,100 and best all my relatives.
Keep us posted on your progress.
John Taylor
Thanks John Taylor! Apart from your chemistry knowledge, I love your optimism, I needed it so much in my current state! Will definitely buy your book, but the direct contact is also very helpful! I will post in a week or two.
Lots of love!
One thing that Dr. Ghalili prescribed for me was Proline. I see very little mention of it on this site, and it’s not in the Toxicity Solution. Google Proline and read about what it does. It aids in collagen production, and the older you get, and in particular if you’re compromised, the less you naturally produce. Putting collagen in your body is one thing, getting your body to produce more collagen is another. I am essentially “recovered” but I still take it every day, along with Angstrom magnesium, etc.
This may or may not be the right place to be saying this but new floxies should probably get this ebook and read it. https://www.amazon.com/Floxie-Hope-Fluoroquinolone-Antibiotic-Toxicity-ebook/dp/B00VGS34A8/
Yes I agree totally. Make some sort of arrangements to “QUICKLY” advance through the 26,093 comments to a more recent time.
Thanks Jason. But something’s wrong with comment order on that site and I see comments from 2013 and there’s no button “newest” – only “newer comments”. I’d have to click newer comments like a thousand times to get to 2020. Could you do something about that? Thanks.
Happy to receive your comment, Andrea.
I dont know, to be honest. The worst part is, the comments are sorted from the oldest to the newest. Let’s wait some more time as Jason sets everything up, maybe something will appear on the main page, and if not, then ask him where is the best place for the chat.
Hey John, The comment section may need some changes for sure. I will look into it for you. Also if you are looking for the old homepage click on the menu > other resources > old homepage.
Try again. That doesn’t work.
In just a click I was able to get to the comments and post? Are you sure you are clicking here https://floxiehope.com/home-2/
That didn’t work either. Maybe the problem is I amusing an IPad XS.
Hello Everyone! I hope we will be able to chat again in the comments! Love to all of you!
Hi John. Is this the new board to chat with the rest of the floxies?
Hey Andrea, the new homepage is a change and I know that it can be jarring. However the old homepage with all the comments are under the menu item >other resources > old homepage. I may change it back to that page being the homepage to make it easier. What do you think?
The old homepage starts with comments from 2013. We need to be able to get to the comments from earlier this month! Since Feb 13th I thought this website had disappeared as every time I clicked on the icon on my shortcut all I got was stuff saying it was a wordpress site.
Please clear your browser cache. Also the original homepage link is in the menu under other resources
Jason, I agree with Madge and others. The Blog is the core part of FloxieHope for those of us who have been using the site for a long time. The changes are nice if you are a new floxie or don’t understand about fluoroquinolone toxicity but for those of who are regular users this new design is a nightmare.
As noted when you finally find the blog it starts with the oldest posts first. My last memory said there were over 30,000 posts. I tried getting to the “new” content but just couldn’t click forward enough.
Bring back the blog and bring it back where it is easily accessible; if not the landing page then an obvious way to access it. Right now I feel like FloxieHope has abandonded me.
I understand change can be hard but with change comes challenges. None of the comments are gone but just in a different place. You can find the original homepage by using the menu and clicking other resources. We are working on the comments now.
Jason,
I totally understand that change can be hard. And I very much appreciate you taking on the role of moderator and that you have new ideas and want to share your vision. Kudos on that.
My problem is that this new page was clearly not ready for public consumption. My professional life is providing instructional design support for various websites for a major insurance company and this page was not thoroughly tested and ready for deployment. It has many pages with broken links to photos, has many more where there are clickable resources but there is no visible text. It is hard to navigate and difficult to locate material. If you want examples just email me and I will send them back to you.
Most important to those of us who are regular users the blog is hard to find and nearly impossible to get to recent posts. Thus we are posting here, which I realize is not correct, because there is no where else we can find to post. Even posting here is “broken” because posts related to other posts are not indented nor in any way noted as related posts.
I know change is hard but it should be done only following thorough testing and evaluation. I get you were excited to launch the new site; but it should have been a dark launch to a handful of evaluators that included some of the regular users of the site; not a big bang launch of a site that wasn’t ready for consumption.
Why don’t you just revert the site back to the old environment for now and continue to develop and test the new site. I would be happy to be a site tester and share my experience and expertise, but this is not ready for public use.
What are these related posts doing here? They appear to be in some sort of Latin. Iam very suspicious of them
Can you please share the link to this page?
