Duplicate question; see other reply. This is a complicated situation and cannot be adequately addressed on this or any other online forum. If ciprofloxacin in fact is needed, the risk of serious side effects is very low; there are 40 years of experience with it, with few dangerous outcomes and no reported deaths except in patients a lot older than you. Keep working with your doctors.
