LISTEN WHILE YOU LEARN

UPDATE:  Effective Oct 2025, the CDC issued a medical diagnosis code ICD10 - T36.AX "Poisoning by, adverse effect of, and underdosing of fluoroquinolone antibiotics"!!!!  This is HUGE guys - more proof that what happend to us is REAL!

Here's the specific code: T36.AX5 – Adverse effect of fluoroquinolone antibiotics

Share this with your doctor and learn more here: https://fq100.org/find-help

I want to express my sincere compassion for your situation - I truly am sorry this happened to you.  I know first-hand how debilitating, life-wrecking, frustrating, hopeless, and expensive this experience can be - I lived it, and still do.  It's as if a bomb went off in your body and unravels it cell by cell - a domino effect or runaway train that leads to pain and extreme physical, cognitive, and nervous system dysfunction and eventually disablilties.  I prefer not to think of it as ruining my life, but as a learning experience that I am 100% committed to fixing for myself and anyone else going through this.

Read this book - it explains everything (also share it with all of your medical providers):

Fluoroquinolone Associated Disability FQAD, side effects of fluoroquinolones, 2025 by Stefan Pieper - be sure you read the SECOND edition which has new information you will wan to know that was not in the first edition.

Go to this website - learn what happened to you, it's REAL!  https://fq100.org/

I am not a doctor, I repeat - I am NOT a doctor.  I'm simply sharing resources to further your education if you have been floxed or think you may have been (important to check your medical records to see if you've consumed a fluoroquinolone antibiotic).

What is being floxed?  Well, it's different for everyone it happens to, but basically, at some point you put a fluoroquinolone antibiotic into your body (oral, IV, eye drops, or ear drops) and you start to break down at the cellular level, for some of us after the first dose, but for others it can take years to manifest, which makes it very challening to figure out what is going on.  Even the FDA issued a Black Box Warning for this class of medication due to its disabling side effects.   

Being floxed is also called Cipro Toxicity, Fluoroquinolone Toxicity, Fluoroquinolone Associated Disability (FQAD) and most recently recognized in the medical community as ICD10 - T36.AX5.  You can learn more HERE and  HERE.

List of Fluoroquinolones:  Ciprofloxacin (cipro), Levofloxacin (Levaquin), Moxifloxacin (Avelox), Ofloxacin (floxin), Norfloxacin (Noroxin), Gemifloxacin (Factive), Delafloxacin, and Gatifloxacin.  

We call it being "floxed" because all of these pharmaceutical drugs contain the word "flox" in them.  These drugs (and MANY) others) also contain FLUORIDE molecules, which science has shown is one of the leading causes of adverse effects in the human body; hence, my "Floxie Rules".

FLOXIE RULES

Report it to the FDA:  ELECTRONIC FORM.

Rule #1:  AVOID ALL FLUORIDE (natural and synthetic), which is a learning process for sure.  

Start Here:

Truth About Fluoride

Rule #2:  AVOID CREATING ADDITIONAL OXIDATIVE STRESS -  A few holistic therapies can increase oxidative stress in the body (although some floxies have tried them with mixed outcomes).  Intravenous high-dose vitamin C, hyperbaric oxygen chambers, and ozone therapy are just a few to be aware of.  

HOPE:  Molecular Hydrogen (inhalation and tablets) reverse oxidative stress in the body - the science supporting this is incredible, please research it.  I'm not sure why this isn't used more in holistic centers but we purchased a HydroHeal machine for our home and I use it daily (all machines are not created equal - again, do your research!). 

Rule #3:  GET PROFESSIONAL GUIDANCE - This can be a tough one for sure, be careful who you listen to and make sure they understand fluoroquinolone toxicity.  See my lists of recommends below.

Rule #4:  TEST DON'T GUESS - this is VERY Individualized, it's NOT a one-size fits all or "everybody needs this XYZ" - no.  Healing must happen at the cellular level, and there may be something else going on in your body that is preventing this (Lyme and mold are biggies).  Know your intracellular micronutient numbers, this is SO important, please don't underestimate this step.  You can order a test HERE

Rule #5:  USE NATURE - relax in the sun, soak in the ocean or mineral springs, breathe fresh outdoor air (on days they are NOT spraying from airplanes) - oxygen, minerals, and the sun is nature's medicine and is FREE.  Use them :)

Rule #6:  GET THE FLUORIDE OUT OF YOUR CELLS/BODY - There is mixed information available about how to do this, one option is ozone therapy, but again it creates oxidative stress in the process so I am not a fan (and had a horrible experiece).  3 ways I do agree with and are proven by science are:  Iodine, Boron, and Tamarind.  Do your research.  You can get all 3 of these HERE.

If you have been floxed or are a professional in the field helping those who are trying to recover from this devastating experience, and have additional resources that can be added to this page, please do get in touch with me :)

This is a VERY individualized approach which requires professional guidance.  Again, I highly encourage you to spend the money to find out your intracellular micronutrient status.

That being said, I have personally found all of these to be helpful:

- Molecular Hydrogen

- BPC-157 peptide

- TB500 peptide

- KPV peptide

- Vitamin C

- Magnesium

- iodine

- boron

- tamarind

- Copper (only Cu1)

2.  Red Light Therapy & Ice Packs (alternate)

3. Infrared Sauna - IF your mineral status is normal (test).  I've owned over 5 different brands of infrared saunas in my lifetime, and hands down this is the BEST!  It's affordable, portable, zero EMFs, zero ELFs, zero VOCs, and you can LAY DOWN rather than sit.

4. Get Massages - I know, it can REALLY hurt to be touched, there are times when I cannot get these (1.5 year period straight at one point!)

5.  Stem Cells:

I realize what I am about to share is "different".  Look into Urotherapy - also known as using your own aged urine to create stem cells from YOUR body for FREE - learn more here: UROTHERAPY EDUCATION

- IVs (very expensive)

- Injections (very expensive)
