"I went into the hospital for surgery. I was on three medicines the day of surgery, and an infection happened. I was given Avelox by IV for 6 weeks. In 2011, I had the same situation, so again 6 weeks, calling it an extended amount of Avelox. So I had 24 weeks in all by IV. I have tendon damage so severe that Mayo can do nothing to help me. My toes curl under, and my feet have muscle wasting, fat pad syndrome, the bones now have cysts, and I haven't been able to walk on my feet at all. I went through all of the neuropathy, crying in pain, then I couldn't find my feet because I lost sense of where they were. The motor function burned out to where walking became impossible. Everything else has been ruled out, even by Mayo, one other major hospital, and one is working it out now just to see if they can give me any relief of pain. It's just going up higher, the atrophy is muscle gone forever."
