This worked great as well. But after a year...i became immune to it as well. Stay out of the sun..wear sun screen. you will burn. this one is higher than minocycline

This is what they finally treated me with. It was bad enough that the Lyme Disease made me puking sick....this med made it worse bc it was so strong but it did eventually help.

My LLMD started with 200mg of doxy 2x perday, which he said was a starting place with no guarantee. It works for me! I was on for 7 months,off for three, but experienced relapse. I now pulse by using doxy one week per month. My body seems to love doxy, and I feel really good. I herxed at first, but have experienced steady improvement. Excercise and a good diet are essential for me.

Doxycycline is a God-send. I take 100 mg once a day and it has calmed by rosacea down dramatically. I notice the days if I forget to take it and my face is much more irritated. It is that quick of a drug for it to react when not using it daily. No side effects whatsoever. If not on this, get it into your system ASAP.
