Sheila Duggan

Hi, my name is Glenda Ulloa.....

We created this page for Sheila, our sister, our friend, a daughter, a mother, a grandmother.

Sheila has been through so much in the past 20 years and we finally have an answer to her mystery illness and the root of all her issues. It’s Cipro poisoning. Cipro is a common antibiotic prescribed for an infection. Sheila has taken it many times and each time unknowingly got sicker and sicker and weaker and weaker

Sheila is a very hard worker; she has had her own DMV business for 40 years. She has fought to get to work every day, but due to chronic weakness and illness, she recently had to quit working. The weakness, the fear of falling and driving, even became an issue. She lost her ability to walk without assistance, and her reflexes are shot.

We want her to get well again and regain her strength so she can function at a normal level. It’s been a long 20-year struggle. 20 years of fear.

After many years of research, seeing multiple doctors, losing work, and spending thousands of dollars out of pocket to find the answers and to just feel a little better we finally have found a doctor that specializes in treatment for Cipro toxicity (fluoroquinolone associated disease) in Los Angeles. This doctor also was poisoned by the same drug. However, the treatment is about $25,000 and is not covered by insurance.

Thankfully there are no travel expenses, and she will be able to drive to Los Angeles for treatment. She has an appointment set up for mid-September 2022.

If you would be willing to help in any way that you can. No donation is too small. If you cannot donate, please keep her in your prayers and help raise awareness of the effects that this drug Cipro and other Fluoroquinolone drugs can do. It’s very dangerous and they are still prescribing it today. Do not take Fluoroquinolones as the first line of treatment. If your doctor prescribes these for you, be your own advocate. If you know someone that has a mystery illness and has taken these drugs, let them know this could be their issue. Symptoms of Floxy toxicity are weakness, muscle wasting, cramping, tendonitis, tinnitus, it destroys your mitochondria, and so much more. Do not take fluoride; it is very toxic for some.

Sheila’s Story: In 1999, I started having mysterious weakness in my lower extremities, which has continued to worsen over the years. I’ve seen many doctors at UCLA, family doctors, mold specialists, natural paths, kinesiologists, chiropractors, neurosurgeons, neurologists, and rheumatologists. I had my tooth implant removed as well because I thought it was making me sick after having a root canal. I’ve had multiple MRI’S of the brain, and spine, painful nerve conduction tests, and ultrasounds and not one has been able to figure out what is wrong with me. As the weakness progressed, I got so weak I spent many weeks in bed, unable to walk unassisted. My muscles have wasted away, my tendons are so damaged, and my foot is so heavy I must wear a brace so I don’t trip. I can’t walk upstairs, I can’t run, I need help getting out of a chair, and I can’t hold my granddaughter. I need help with everything I do. I can drive, but it's scary because I don’t have the strength to move quickly. I was given a diagnosis based on symptoms alone, which is rare and not curable. I tested negative for that diagnosis three times by three different specialist doctors. The medicine they gave me for my “diagnosis” was like a blood transfusion, I took that medicine and suffered with even more weakness and migraines for weeks, for 12 years, every 3 weeks for 6-8 hours at a time, and it took me two weeks to recover from the procedure. I could’ve had a stroke. Thankfully I did not. I’ve suffered for a very long time. I did not realize I was poisoning myself with an

antibiotic that I kept taking. But I’ve never stopped praying for healing, searching for answers or gave up hope. But God is good, and because I never gave up hope and didn’t stop researching, I finally have an answer. I’m so thankful to all of you that have stood by my side and prayed many times for me, and supported me all these years.

Thank you again for helping out my friend! Blessings!
