Biggest thank you
4 November 2024Hi everyone an update on Fraser’s health and ACC case. After several months of leasing the Hyperbaric oxygen chamber he really noticed a difference with his energy levels and brain clarity. Thank you so much to everyone who donated and helped him to lease the machine for that long!!!! We are so grateful 😊 Now that he no longer has it he is noticing just how much using it every day was benefiting him. There has been no treatment from ACC, other than a few weeks of physio but that funding has run out so he’s told. And so he sits and waits because no one knows how to proceed. ACC will not cover any ‘unproven’ treatments and it seems there are no ‘proven treatments’ for toxicity in NZ! It is now two years that he has been off work and he still has daily severe hand & feet pain and now lower back pain.
There is some good news though! Two other men who are in the NZ support group he started for fluoroquinolone toxicity have just had their ACC cases approved - after battling for years with no acknowledgement! This is such good news as it means with their combined efforts they’re spreading awareness about this severe reaction and ACC are finally it seems listening. Maybe this means they will receive some sort of treatment plan in the future?! Who knows, we can only hope. And keep making loud noise that it is not ok to ignore the danger of these antibiotics that have ruined formerly fit & healthy peoples lives. Thanks again everyone, much love!
