Can someone answer my post. I am on my 4th week of Doxy which I am taking 4 pills a day. I have started to itch alot around my torso and on my side. It is so annoying and has not gone away. I asked Dr. D if it was the antibiotic causing this or the toxins starting to come out from the ketes dying off. He seemed to think it might be the toxins and I might just have to suffer thru this minor annoyance. He said I can use Benadryl ointment or anti-itch creme for this. Also my twitching has become less prevalent but comes with more force now. I am sleeping better now and only notice minor stabbing aches from time to time. I know everyone's body is different, but has anyone else experienced itching. Does this mean that the Doxy might be working to kill the ketes?

I can't answer about whether the itching is dying lyme or from the abx but I do know it could be YEAST related.

Are you following the yeast protocols for diet, probiotics etc?

If not you might like to consider it.

Wishing you fast healing and good health!
