I am breaking out in Hives and the only thing I can think of is that it is Doxy. I have been on it for a month via IV.

Has anyone developed a reaction over time?

Spring,

Yes, you can develop an allergic reaction at any time. They can become quite serious.

Please stop all your meds and contact your doctor now.

After you hear from the doctor, please check in with us and lettuce no how you are doing. OK?

Your histamine levels are probably through the roof. Ask your Dr about this and look into it.
