I started Doxy and Flagyll in November and after about a week, I was just sitting on the couch and had an "anxiety" type attack...feeling all nervous and shaky for no reason and then I shook for hours and felt anxious. I have never had anything like that before.

I was off the meds for 2 months due to having to be in the sun too much this summer and went back on them this week. The same thing happened last night after being on the meds for a few days. I was just watching TV and the anxiety part came on, I got shooting pains through my chest for a second and then started shaking. I am still shaky.

Is anyone able to shed light on this? What does anyone know about this sort of reaction?

Blessings to you, Campermom

Very possibly a herx.

I answered my own question... a reaction from Flagyl. Looked it up online and there it was...side effect from Flagyl. UGH.

Flagyl is the pits....

Tindimax may be a better alternative. I think it is more easily tolerated than Flagyl.
