So I stopped Doxy after 2 months because my head was killing me. It has only been 3 days and I feel like some symptoms are coming back. Could this really happen in just 3 days or is this just my normal flair.
I would think it would take more than 3 days for everything to regrow or whatever it does
Any help would be great!!

Getting symptoms so quickly usually means you have a coinfection. Have you been tested for babesia and bartonella?
Sounds like the doxy was doing its job very well!!

I can't say for sure.. They say that co-infections do re-surface quite quickly and doxy does hit bart as well as lyme. If you only treated for 2 months, most likely that is not long enough and you may want to switch to something like Ceftin and flagyl.
Try detoxing more and add binders like apple pectin or chitosan to clear out the remaining toxins.
I do know that when my daughter stopped abx her symptoms intensified for a month or so afterwards and now (3 months later)she says she is starting to feel normal again.

I just stopped doxy as well. Anxiety which was my biggest symptom has returned after a week of stopping.

I tested negative and present clinically negative as well. I started with nausea then felt like I was having a nervous breakdown. That is slowly returning after stopping doxy. some say your symptoms spike after stopping abx. I sure hope so.
