Began taking Levaqauin on/about 19Mar08. Became symptomatic (agitation + insomnia followed by a host of psychiatric ills) within eight weeks. I'm in a living hell now, which might or might not be related to flouroquinolone, e.g., levaquin poisoning. There are more than 2000+ posting on this site that go back five or so years. Most of the postings constitute one-way communiques from hell. (Go ahead, read a representative sampling of the postings.) Here's the question: what became of these people who wrote their awful posts? Are they still alive? Did they find cures? How does one contact some of the earlier posters?

The ONE pill I took a few weeks ago effected me for days - if not weeks....Actually, I still don't feel as though I have recovered. I can't imagine what those are feeling who took LEVAQUIN for days, weeks, or months. I would not have survived.

Prayer has helped me greatly. I, too, wonder about others who have posted on this site.

God bless. I hope you are feeling better.

You have the same question I had six months ago. Since then, I've found a great support community with many members..many who are seeing some recovery. Check out this group at the following address: http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/quinolones. There's another one also: http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/fqtoxicity/messages. Good luck and hang in there. Things do get better in time.
