It is really hard to say. If the mitochondria have not died...are just not working properly...the interventions would be useful.
Research into mitochondrial damage, is still very primative.
It is heating up some with autistic research, aging research, etc. We have just seen that statins cause their damage thru mitochondria attack. So do chemo and AIDs drugs.
In your case I would think the drugs were serious players.
It takes many many years for the truth to come out about
drug damage. In the case of fluroquinolones, many of them have been taken off the market. One really terrible one only lasted a couple of weeks--Omniflox-- caused liver failure/death.
