It was first the ethambutol which started to affect my eyes sight.
That was switched to Ciprofloxacin which virtually paralysed my abdomen gave me diarrhoea and complete insomnia and many other things which were all blamed on the infection because I wasn’t having any tendon pain. Then later on things were changed to clofazimine Amakacin azithromicin Rifabutin. the Amakacin destroyed my hearing but the clofazimine further ruined my gut and skin.
I’d say out of them all and connecting with other people who had the same reactions it was he Ciprofloxacin that did the damage. If it wasn’t for the Ciprofloxacin things might have been a lot different
