Levaquin Linked To Premature Ventricular Contractions

Tendonitis and tendon rupture is only the tip of the iceburg and the least of the patients concerns!! The fluoroquinolone class of antibiotic is a toxic chemotherapeutic agent, which was developed to treat anthrax! The adverse reactions are not mere side-effects which go away after treatment, but often result in permanent and painful disabling conditions!! Please allow me to C&P my comment as follows:

In 2003 I ingested 20 pills total of AVELOX (moxifloxacin) and LEVAQUIN (levofloxacin), as prescribed by my doctor to treat a sinus infection. My life has been hell on earth ever since, w/ the progression of severe, disabling adverse reactions. Today as I post these words, I can add Premature Ventricular Contractions to the never-ending list of ADR’s, as well as neck pain so severe that I can hardly hold up my head and type this.

Every morning when I open my eyes, I awaken to this nightmare. There is a “sickness” that feels like my body has been poisoned. My hands and feet are swelled and sore…my entire body is stiff and painful…heart-palpitations, vibrations throughout my body…ringing in my ears…bleeding specks of sores on my skin…and a full, bloated feeling in my gut…I feel like I should be dead. It is only by the grace of God, and the love of my 2 children that I am able to pull myself up out of bed, and make it painfully down the stairs. Crying will do no good, as I know I must be strong to fight this horrendous ordeal that has become my life. Knowing that there are others who are living this nightmare gives me a sense of strength…and compassion. There are no more words to described what we are going through emotionally, let alone physically. How could something so unbelievably criminal have happened to us?? And why is this insanity being allowed to continue?? How many more innocent people will have their lives destroyed…how many more must suffer…how many more must die….before something is done?? Someone tell me, what will it take??

Diagnosed w/ arthralgia, trigeminal neuralgia, tendinitis both elbows, enlarged lymph nodes…
still seeing doctor after doctor, and specialists who can only treat the “symptoms”, not the cause.

The Black-Box warning for tendon damage is hardly sufficient and long-overdue.

The poisons that robbed my children of a mother were AVELOX and LEVAQUIN…20 pills. I traded a sinus infection for this life of pain and misery.
