I have always been a healthy person. But after taking a large amount of antibiotics over a long period of time I developed food intolerances, swelling, itching, skin infections, muscle twitching, and vision distortion. I'm off the antibiotics and started taking different supplements which really helped, but why would antibiotics do this and could perminant damage have been done?
