Any help would be appreciated. Symptoms keep getting worse and worse. Current general physician put me on Doxycylin which I had an allergic reaction to. Very closed minded about wide ranging Lyme related symptoms. Need new Lyme specialist asap!

What kind of reaction did you have to doxycycline? Could it have been a herx(a worsening of symptoms)? Also, doxy can cause nausea & vomitting, if so, it should be taken with food, followed by liquid to wash it down, and you should not lie down for 45 minutes or so.

You might want to post in Medical Questions about that.
