Default Avelox toxicity

Hi all,
I went to the search engine today and posted on there about this but I'm not sure if it will show up here.

I was diagnosed with SFN in 2008. My symptoms started in July of 2008.
Out of curiosity I recently requested to read my chart at my GP's office.
I wanted to see if I had a bacterial or viral infection around that time that may have caused my SFN.

I had a few pages out of my chart copied while I was there and brought them home.

Well as I read I saw I had sinusitis and saw the doctor on July 1, 2008. I was give avelox 400mg for ten days. This is at the same time all my symptoms started. I was away over the week of 4th of July that year and started to have a weird sensation in my feet and legs. Within two weeks it was really painful. I looked up avelox and it turns out it is a flouroquinolone.

Sorry for the long winded story but I think I might have just found what caused my neuropathy. What do you think? If so is there any treatment I should be looking into? :confused
