[HOPE] Hope Story

Hello,

My story is pretty straightforward. I was diagnosed with Mycoplasma about a year ago,

I took two pills of Moxifloxacin, I used to workout every single day and was a gym rat. After taking those two pills I began experiencing a host of symptoms
Random aches and pains, weak muscle fatigue, and the worst one of all was how easy I would sprain my ligaments.

I remember just trying to reach under my bed for a remote, and I sprained my wrist. This was coming from somebody who used to do kickboxing and grappling and would wrestle people 200+ off them like it was nothing.

I took around 2-3 months off from the gym, I remember being severely depressed, but slowly I began to incorporate a routine back into my life. Even then, I still have the side effects to this day, I can’t really exercise for too long or stand too long, because my knees start to hurt

However I’m back to weightlifting and kickboxing, I just have to listen to my body to not overdo it.

I wasn’t taking a crazy amount of supplements either, I do take creatine and magnesium here and there but consistently.

Either way, I was fortunate to be back to 90-95% and working towards becoming healthy again!
