Flagyl is not a fluoroquinolone.

It is chemically different, and will not necessarily cause the damage the same way the fluoroquinolones do.

Thanks. I've been all over that wiki site as well as every other publication I can get my hands on regarding metronidazole.

I'm aware its not an FQ, but its just that my reactions are so severe (and unique!) and I can't help but think that there are some strong similarities to the way my neuropathies developed as I was under extreme physical and mental stress at time if onset. And both FQs and Metrodonzadole are both so toxic to the CNS.

Now I'm getting worried this could be ischemic.

I'm sorry to be questioning this so much, but I'm in an extreme amount if pain and bed ridden. I had 1 hour sleep last night and can barely walk. I'm hanging on by a thread. I was a healthy active and fit mother three months ago. Now I can't even attempt a flight of stairs.
