Anyone else? I'm about to do mino and plaq as well. Anything to look out for?

Mino can cause dizziness and sun sensitivity. Def wear sunscreen. Don't forget ears and backs of hands.

Plaq is an easy drug for most people, though I did have nausea with the first generic I tried. Had to switch generics, then it was fine.

I couldn't tolerate the plaquenil. I think it's a great med and it's been around for many, many years.

I'd advise ppl to try it. I think generally the majority have no problem with it and I am in the minority.

As for the minocycline, I personally wouldn't take it in the sumner unless you are someone who avoids the sun/beach/outdoors.

Bump. I'm on this combo and its been tough on my gut.

I've only done min with tindi and others, not plaquenil.

Sounds like a great combo to start with. Be sure to take plenty of high quality mixed strain probiotics (2 hours or more away from abx), and eat a low carb, sugar free diet

Had to stop Mino and switch to Doxy cuz the Mino made me dizzy and gave me vertigo. I combo Flagyl with Doxy and that is a winner for me.

Mino is a bit better for sun sensitivity as compared to Doxy but bad vestibular side effects.
