My Quin Story

Hi, my name is David.  I was a normal middle aged man in excellent health. I exercised daily and ate healthy.  After a routine 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.  Only after the fact did I research these drugs and found out that this class of antibiotics have a very dark side.  A dark side side that it actually experienced by thousands of people, some figuring it out, and others clueless to what has befallen them.  These reactions are considered statistically insignificant by drug companies and the FDA. This site is basically about my experiences in dealing with the aftermath of what the FDA has determined to be a safe drug.  This site is here for the enlightenment of others, to provide information so that people can make an informed choice in their medical care. Another reason for it’s existence is a form of therapy for myself, so that I can write about things that have helped me and things that others say have helped them, and to express true frustration with the medical community and their ignorance to this problem.
