It feels like I was filmed in that movie -Groundhog Day with Bill Murray. Every day I wake up and it is the same day of symptoms. Head tremor, pain, vision abnormalities, burning, fatigue and on and on. I watched most of the Super Bowl last night. Normally I would have great joy in a Pennsylvania team like the Steelers or Philadelphia Eagles winning it all. Not so last night. The Levaquin poisoning has sapped the joyful moods I used to have. They say that heart disease is the silent killer. I think fluoroquinolone poisoning  is the real silent killer. It’s an invisible disease because it destroys brain cells, nerves, and tendons but the damage is usually not visible to someone looking at you. And then the doctors who treat us for the most part simply deny it.  Every day seems like a day in the Groundhog Day movie. I can’t even remember that much of the film  due to the Levaquin poisoning effecting my memory some.

The drug companies who market Levaquin, Cipro, and Avelox have done a wonderful job of concealing this toxicity. Intuitively, it is hard to imagine that an antibiotic that you take for a short time period could cause such extensive symptoms and even permanent damage. When a celebrity gets poisoned and can’t be bought off the world will then know what has happened. The media has a love affair with celebrities and that would surely make front page news.  

Please warn others on the severe and crippling side effects of Levaquin, Cipro and other quinolone antibiotics. If you have ever taken Levaquin, Cipro, or Avelox and have unexplained pain, anxiety, insomnia, or other brain abnormalities, check your medical records to see if you were ever given one of these antibiotics. The effects of these antibiotics ( quinolones ) are often delayed for weeks or months so the true cause of your health problems are never linked back to these antibiotics. These reactions are not rare. Read the links below and what Dr. Cohen and Dr. Flockhart have to say about how common these devastating and potentially permanent reactions are. I personally believe many people that have fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome are actually suffering from quinolone toxicity. If you know of anyone in the media please help get our story to the press so that more innocent victims aren’t crippled.
