It is now time for you to investigate Gluten intolerance.
This can cause GI upsets and vague neurological symptoms. http://jccglutenfree.googlepages.com...eralneuropathy Was B12 tested? What are your numbers? "normal" is often misreported for this nutrient. Did you have Vit D testing? It is possible some of your GI problems (if they occurred only after the Levaquin use) are due to dysbiosis that occurs after antibiotics. Since you state you have used other ones as well before the Levaquin, you could have a problem brewing from pathogens in the GI tract. If you have chronic or frequent diarrhea, you lose electrolytes quickly and this affects nerves. Low magnesium and low potassium give paresthesias as a sign. Fixing this takes time and attention. You can start by eating a quality yogurt that has listed several strains of organisms to restore yourself. Or you can investigate a good probiotic product at your health food store. Some of these can be expensive. Numbness and tingling with twitching is a sign of calcium/magnesium imbalance.

Hello again.
I have come to the concludsion Mrs D that everything that is happening to me is a result of the anti- biotic. Since my last post things have taken a turn for the worst. I have started to have regular palpitations (2-3 episodes a day) especially after alcohol. Also i have noticed that my hands seem to be suffering from atrophy, inbetween my finger tendons seem to hollowing out also i have a area on my wrist doing the same. This is accompanied by hand cramps and a feeling that my nerves of the hand are not protected so turning the door handle for instance causes a "nervy feeling". I have also noticed that the muscles around the elbow are getting smaller. I am also experiencing foot cramps, back cramps and leg cramps along with back ache. It seems as though my whole body is malfunctioning?? my hamstrings have become very tight aswell. The fasiculations have gotten worse aswell. I am very very freightened and not sure what to do, all my symptoms are identical to ALS and such diseases!!!! |

ecstasy. booze . Plug your cytochrome P450 system up with some Levaquin, the other junk stays in your system longer....
MDMA is KNOWN to produce neurological damage. A lot of neurological damage is at the molecular level and wont show on many tests. Small fiber neuropathy for example requires a skin biopsy. Plus a little considered fact, Ecstasy is illegal...probably with good reason. You are messing with your dopamine receptors and could end up wrecking them permanently and ending up with Parkinsons, at the least....not to mention you are producing serotonin syndrome, which can be fatal. Why blame the antibiotic? I don't think you will qualify for the law suit...you need tendon damage, ruptured tendons to be specific. I think you could learn from this...Don't do Ecstasy....it isn't good for you. You can consider me a mean old lady, fine, but I have done a fair amount of ambulance runs over my career, to pick up kids with decerebrate posturing, wierded out pupils, peeing their pants....some of them never come back. Now is that recreation??

I don't want to sound like a downer... but there is very little else
I can suggest here for you, Mighty. I've given you links to show what is known about X and Levaquin so far. I would suspect there are other things that will be discovered in the future as well. X is very dangerous. And its suppliers for it vary in quality and quantity in each tablet. You may get weak X one time and the next time it might be 10 fold. Since there is no control over this, and because other countries with no controls are main suppliers, we don't even know if X is contaminated or not. Here is a Wiki link on Levaquin: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levofloxacin I do think it is rather early for atrophy. Atrophy usually takes longer to show up. You will have to seek expert neurological treatment from now on. I hope with time you will return to your pre-drug use state. That is still possible.
