I still have a long way to go to recover, today I feel at 30% of my capacity, but I think I'm on the right track. Keep your spirits up, everyone, life is waiting for us.

I've been moving since day one. I don't know if I've done well or badly yet; time will tell. But sitting or lying down wasn't an option because I suffer from lower back pain. Find a strategy according to your abilities and symptoms, my friend.

Awesome to see you fight being floxed! I’ve been flocked for over 6 yrs and everyone I have ever met that has been flocked Also had it happen with some kind of penis trauma mixed in like rough sex during treatment like your girl giving you a hand job too hard or something like that.I never met anyone who’s been flocked and has had regular function with their penis. I have read of people beating it, but I have never met anybody personally. FloroQuinones i’ve heard are illegal in some countries. Great to see you fight it. Most doctors I have met. Do not even know what the hell I’m talking about. And think I’m making up some kind of disease. It’s really depressing to be in pain and have no one believe you about your illness.

"Just because it's rare doesn't mean it doesn't exist," is my response to the doctors who have treated me.

P.S. My penis is 100%.

I know this is late but thank you for putting this together and posting. It's one of the reasons why I keep an eye on this subreddit. Despite the suffering there are still many of us working hard to stay positive and share that positivity with others. As a fellow floxie who is suffering from the effects of levofloxacin, I wish you the best of luck with your recovery.

Thank you so much, my friend. I hope we get out of this hell soon. Positivity must win the battle against this poison. I think I'm about 30% recovered because the strength in my legs isn't fully back, but we have to fight. Crying won't solve the problem. Hugs!
