Cipro ruins LIVES!! | |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 45925645 Olive leaf extract Colloidal silver Oil of Oregano Fresh raw garlic The list goes on. I would exhaust all natural remedies before I would think of taking toxic, poisonous, dangerous pharmaceutical drugs. Always do tons of reading and research before deciding to take any drugs, and before embarking on self healing. It's a great hobby, studying natural health and healing to take care of your own health. Wonderful stuff on your list. |

If he/she doesn't know how damaging this class of drugs is the problem will go on. My daughter who is a nurse told me to stop blaming the doctors. I suppose she is right. It isn't their fault if they don't know. If it were possible I would sue the company. I went from being an able bodied, do anything I wanted to do to now not being able to do much at all with my joints swelling and taking 2 to 3 days to recover from just a little activity.

If it is a life or death situation, we'll take the "never be the same" option. The problem is, handing out antibiotics like aspirin has itself caused many of those life or death situations we now see. Resistant bacteria are the pure result of that practice. An even bigger culprit is the constant dosing of ppl who eat mass produced meat. Antibiotics are fed to food animals, humans eat the food animals. That practice HAS.TO.STOP. Nobody in authority will step up to this mega problem. Pharma R&D are left to do whatever they want, and they don't care; it simply means they get to keep collecting grant money to research and develop drugs to treat the illnesses that drugs cause. Just so many things wrong, and I don't see how we can fix them all.... |

This should be a last line of defense antibiotic. Stuff you get in the Hospital, not stuff you take home in a jar to take for a month. of course VA wants to kill them hopefully it doesn't go further than tempting them to abuse medications and painkillers I think at some level for the groups in control its a game of turning one group against another for their benefit, sitting back and laughing while these various other groups attack each other not realizing they've been manipulated American public is just another group, as are servicemen ... after they have a laugh at getting you to go off and kill or suppress foreigners, they enjoy mistreating them when they return for "benefits", leave them homeless, mentally ill, etc I'm in that system - I gave them some benefit of the doubt when I entered that world after my deployment - now I go once a year for my check up - double check and triple check meds they attempt to put me on and really only use them for those terrible pain flares I can't tolerate and want to almost jump off buildings about - by going into their ER for a torodol jab. |

That's what they did with me, 4 days on a drip, 1 month oral 1200mg. Infection started in my elbow due to spider bite, got the organs so it was "take this." Did I mention the damned Tinnitus from this shit? My God the noise is unbearable. What a lot of you don't get is that the natural/herbals do no good with this. Tests don't reveal it, there is no cure for it-although one neurologist at DOD was able to show brain structure changes. You can't sue because there's no path to proof. This is also known as "Gulf war syndrome." Get some vets on this thread I'm a vet "with the stuff" - I know sometimes these meds are what lies between you and death - that is not what I am talking about - I am talking about the UTI scripts, the minor stuff - here is your Cipro. I find a fan running in my room all the time helps with the tinnitus. I stick to mostly naturals for my other symptoms - and I will tell you the bad part - the bad part is you have divorce yourself from processed foods and sugars when you get that deployment related handicapping mulitisymptom shit they should just rename "Living Hell" - |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 25666639 United States 07/04/2017 05:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 5*, OP I found this out many years ago when I had the beginnings of pneumonia. They gave me one, 500 mg dose of Levaquin in the ER, and by the next day the top of my wrist was very painfully inflammed in a red lump, the tendon/connective tissue was under attack. It took a really long time to heal. After that I never allowed them to give me, or anyone in my family, any floxacin or quinolone antibiotics and it is written in all our charts. I pray they can remove these from the market because they are so dangerous and painfully debilitating. |

HORRY SHIT, waffles!!!! When I was better and went back to the Dr, he said C-diff was wicked and he had "lost" 4 patients in the past year to it! I figured I was healthier, and "lucky," and dodged a bullet. Now I wonder if the meds he prescribed were the problem in the first place for all those other people. It was bad, but it never really occurred to me that I could DIE, until he said that..... |

None of the strains have ever been shown to colonize. The longest they have been shown to survive is about 4 weeks. Use antibiotics only as a last resort in a life or death situation. |
