Fluoroquinolone induced mitochondrial dysfunction and CFS/ME

Hi, my name is David. In 2007 I was your normal 46 year old middle age man in excellent health. I exercised daily and ate healthy. After a suspected infection I was given a large dose of the antibiotic Levaquin that my doctor told me was safe and well tolerated. Well it was not safe and I did not tolerate it well. I had a delayed adverse event to the fluoroquinolone (FQ) antibiotic and developed chronic health conditions. After I researched these drugs, I found out that this class of antibiotics have a very dark side. A dark side side experienced by many other people, some figuring it out, and many others remain clueless to what has befallen them. I am an amateur researcher, research participant and blogger.
