There are many issues we'll never know about if we hadn't done this or that...I am forever wondering if I had not had a hip replacement how would I be today...I often regret this surgery, but it must have been bad to do it. I live with a lot of damage 7 yrs out. I was doing good 5 months out but all went downhill.
Cipro and company have pretty bad reputations. Feel better and keep healthy on your own as much as you can...it's the way to go.
