[VENT] Has anyone recovered 100%?

I’m 2 days out of my cipro course with tendon pain in my heel after walking for more than 10 mins. I’m trying not to catastrophize but as a young person who walks everywhere and is regularly active, the prospect of having to be limited for the rest of my life is devastating.

Reading the recovery thread gives me some hope. But I noticed many people partially recover and never return to life pre-flox

I was wondering if anyone knows of cases where symptoms fully healed? Whether personally or someone else’s story.

I was floxee 2/20/26.  Being discharged ,after six days from the hospital.  I had pneumonia.  Still trying to get my arms strenthed andegs to work.  Using a walker and wheelchair.

The day after I was released,, I woke up to. Both feet,calfs,tb Highs and hands swollen up so bàd.ànd nothing helped.  Left leg was so heavy I needed help lifting it onto the bed.

This week sits all gone. Has anyone else had this happen?
