Hi, Everyone,
I made the mistake of taking an antibiotic prescribed to me for a mild infection, and it’s destroyed my health.
I’m a 50 year-old male, previously very fit with workouts 3X a week and walking 10,000 steps a day. Pretty much 100% pain-free. No prescription meds.
Since taking the antibiotic, I’ve had burning pain, and sometimes stinging pain in feet, ankles, hips, knees, elbows more or less 24/7 for 90 days. I can walk, but it increases pain. Have had a lot of tests, but everything comes out fine except for low D, which I’m taking 10,000 IU of per day. Doctors are useless and don’t believe an antibiotic can do this.
I’ve looked through posts and Ray Peat articles. Trying a pregnenalone cream to rub on joints and tendons sounds like a good idea based on his writings, but is there a way to find a good pre-made cream? I know there are drops, but I would need something that I could easily apply to multiple areas.
I’ve never tried cypro, but could that be beneficial, too?
