fluoroquinolones side effects
 

Hi, I live in Hungary and in February I was prescribed a fluoroquinolones-based antibiotic for bronchitis. Within a week, I had tendinitis in both Achilles tendons, my ability to balance was badly compromised and the nerves in my leg muscles and maybe elsewhere were damaged. Six months later, after a strict program of training (exercise bike, walking, physio exercises) most of my symptoms have improved, but I still have pains in my ankles, balance only with care and concentration, and get very tired walking distances which I used to cover with ease. I recently discovered a Wikipedia entry on fluoroquinolones which said that some of the changes were irreversible.
I am planning to seek help from a neurologist locally (Budapest), but am interested to hear from other victims anywhere about any treatments or solutions they have found. Thanks.

You might try posting your question in the peripheral neuropathy forum. There are some folks that know about this over there.
