First of all, thanks for your insight and support.

I started taking doxy six days ago.

I know I should get worse before I get better but should it last this long?

The anxiety is awful-go to bed at 10, wake up at 3 and am hyped for the whole day.

Joint pains are sporadic and sometimes as bad as before I started taking the medication.

I even vomited this morning which I never do.

Help! [dizzy]

That sounds pretty normal to me. Anyone else?

Nausea and vomiting are side effects of the doxy. Take it with plenty of food, but not any dairy foods, to help combat that.

A herx can last a while. Suggest you squeeze fresh lemons into water and drink a lot of that throughout the day. It will help cleanse your body from the toxins and can make you feel a lot better. Hope it helps.

I have been experiencing this also.

I have only vomited once but feel like it a lot.

Eating does help. And the 1/2 lemon in water with

stevia to sweeten too.

Pretty normal sounding. Could go on for a long while, unfortunately!

Be SURE to EAT when you take doxy. Avoid dairy.
