Working / Worked
I believe it is working somewhat but I had a major setback a month ago because I went to sleep after taking two 500 mg. Doxy and burned my esophogus. What an idiot!! I have never known such pain. I take probiotics and they have saved me from the usual gastro problems I have taking antibiotics. till I pulled that stunt a month ago. Have recovered from that but have new symptoms and wondering if I have yeast problems. My LLMD is out of state 3 hours away

I get bad stomach aches from this med.
Thank God, I'm off this medicine. I had the reaction of sunburn. Even only being out for 5 minutes, I would become burned. Not fun at all.

REally, I don't know if it does much at all. With the treatments/lifestyle changes I've made, I still have aggravated red, blotchy skin.

I took Doxy 300mg's a day for 6 months. I reatced very badly from incredably sensetive skin and nausea, but it help to dampen down the effects of Lyme at the time and for a period after.
