oops. never had a rash and no memory of a tick bite. started with sudden symptoms one day....headache, fever, sweats, fatigue. after 4 days i went to my doctor thinking it was the flu. lyme test came back positive, then a week later the western blot test came back positive so my doctor gave me doxy to take twice per day 100mg total for 28 days.
all my original symptoms went away, i felt great for two weeks, then i believe i was herxing for the third week because i got REAL tired again and felt warm flashes. this week i feel real good again, lots of energy, except for this dull pain in the right side of my head that turns into a headache a few times per day. i took my last doxy this morning. my doctor just called and said that headaches and dizziness are a side effect of doxy.
just wondering if anyone else had this on doxy and if it goes away when you stop taking it.
