Don't be a victim.  It's your money, your health, and most importantly, your body.  Don't accept what doctors tell you, do your own research and make up your own mind.  You call the shots with your healthcare.

The first rule of doctors is "Do No Harm."  Perhaps it should also have an addition of "to the pharmaceutical companies."  In this day and age, when it comes to healthcare being a business and pharmaceutical companies making millions, it's not just about getting a patient well.  It doesn't pay them to make you well.

This is a money business for pharmaceutical companies.  Don't be misled.  Just look at this article.  Most doctors only know of "possible" problems with these drugs.  They are not only possible, they are certain.  The effects are cumulative.  You may not have a reaction that you know of the first time, but almost certainly the second round will get you.  Studies have proven in mice, dogs, and horses that the effects to the muscles and nervous system are horrific, possibly lasting a lifetime.  They have known that fact for more than 30 years and still, the pharmaceutical company insists these drugs are safe and even worse, continue to develop more based on the parent quinolones to combat increasingly resistant bacteria.  Bacteria that incidentally, only became resistant when treated with these drugs. 

The only difference between Fluoroquinolone and Quinolone is the addition of Fluoride, another toxic substance.
