This was my first day on the first killing dose of Minocycline and Tindamax.
I can barely stand it. If I had to explain this to a doctor I don't think I could describe a single symptom but I have never felt more zombified and toxic in my life.
I am seriously considering backing off this dose and trying to come back to it in a week or so. Or at least skip the second day of pulsing. I can barely put two words together or bring myself to care about anything, the exhaustion is sort of like being in pain except it's not pain.
Man this better be getting me somewhere.

It's rough stuff for sure. Keep in contact with your doctor and back off the meds when needed. I did a LOT of that.

I think I just decided that's what I'm going to do. One day off. It was a fast ramp-up on Mino/Tindy -- two weeks only up to 200mg a day mino plus 500 tindy 2x a week.
I think Im going to back down to half that for another week. There's no instant recovery on offer here anyway as far as I know. Posts: 2057 | From Florida | Registered: Feb 2015
