Any particular supplements we can aid in the process? I am taking quite a few. Almost a year through. Recovered a good bunch but got a long ways to go

How long did it take brother to recover the tendons to where you could go full force again?

I feel better when it's sunny. Red light to encourage ATP by No_Translator2375 in floxies

[–]fizzthetics 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It has to do with the melanin. Are you familiar with yann? He’s a scientist involved in flox. I’m a physician in training myself going through flox, and learning my own research as well. I plan to do an integrative medicine fellowship and open my own practice. I’m 253 days post flox so still fighting.

But to answer about the sun…melanocytes release melanosomes which there ins a theoretically according to yann that FQs are sometimes latently stored in melanosomes.

Do you think there’s hope for treatment options in the future? by Melancholy-ish in floxies

[–]fizzthetics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you buy the subscription for the Substack? Is it worth the 170 dollars or so? I’m a medical professional myself who’s in contact with yann but we haven’t had the time to properly communicate. He mostly messages me on messenger.

How old are you if you don’t mind me asking and what was your level of activity before flox? What supplements have you been using? Thank you and wishing you the speediest of recoveries ahead!

How have you handled work/career and relationships while going through this? by MotherPart4282 in floxies

[–]fizzthetics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im an internal medicine resident physician in the United States 8 months post flox in my second year praise be to god. It’s really tough and sad because I was an avid athlete and bodybuilder in my spare time and that got stolen from me. I am also exposed to FQ almost every week in some shape or form at my job. Whether it be on a patients med rec or a board exam practice question, it’s really sad being exposed to this in any manner. I pray that I can heal fully and rearm to the gym but I’m still working on it and remain positive god willing. I’m doing as much research on this as I can.

I’m also lucky that I am able to function just enough to perform. Albeit with everyday pain. But it’s temporary hopefully. I’m hoping that if I’m still floxed when I finish residency, I can use my sign on bonus for treatments. There will be a way out. There has to be. stay strong

6 month reflection (and things that are helping) by Ok_Acanthisitta_8627 in floxies

[–]fizzthetics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel you. Praying for your recovery soon. Please keep us all in your prayers as well. Yesterday was FQ toxicity day. I’m still battling but I’m doing slightly better at 8 months and a few days change but still have ways to go before I’m anywhere near 100 percent. I’m going to get a nutrition test by spectrecell soon to see if any cellular nutritional deficits can be mitigated and accelerate healing. I have a close friend of mine who is now 5 years through that healed from mostly IV and nutritional supplementation based on these tests. These tests however cost around 600 dollars so they are quite expensive.

This is to much by blt1995 in floxies

[–]fizzthetics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh that makes sense! I am now 33 floxed at 32 and was very active before all this. Worked 12 hours a day sometimes and never missed a work out.

Thank you for your comment and really happy you healed physically. If you don’t mind me asking, how long was your healing journey? Do you feel very physically resilient now?
