Floxed - I am a collateral damage from fluoroquinolone Antibiotics

Updated edition with further insights and honest reports on Gerald's enormous progress in health. My husband's name is Gerald and he is a collateral damage victim of fluoroquinolone antibiotics, in short, he is floxed! Until a few weeks ago, we had neither heard of the term 'floxed' nor did we know what it means, as in to be affected by severe side effects after taking the aforementioned antibiotics and to therefore become very ill. An almost unbelievable total of 39 side effects affected Gerald or are still affecting him and based on his experiences and subsequent research into his condition, this book is intended to offer both: guidance and for similarly affected people, their relatives and friends. And as a word of caution: please take these antibiotics only after very careful consideration. A note like 'please tell your Doctor or Pharmacist if you suffer from any listed side effects...' is always be included in any medication packages. Unfortunately, though, such references are apparently not taken seriously by the medical profession, nor does any advice or assistance from this side seem to exist as there is no treatment option available. Gerald, therefore, has no other option than to help himself and to share whatever information we have gleaned in this regard with others who may hopefully also benefit thereby. I'm simply going to describe Geralds experiences he went through and explain his different methods (nutritional supplements, medication, and alternatives) he has tried, in order to become human once again. However, Gerald is not a doctor, so this book cannot and must not replace a doctor's consultation, nor should it replace a professional medical diagnosis!
