I took this when I was first being treated which is almost 2 years ago. I can't remember how it made me feel. But I've started back on Mino as doxy (200mg 2x a day) was not agreeing with me anymore.

I've been on it for 2 1/2 days now at 100mg 2x a day. I am feeling dizzy. Not so much that I can't walk around and do my stuff but I notice I have to catch myself every once in awhile because I'm off balance.

When does this quit?? Anyone have an idea?

That lasted for about a week with me. I also felt like I had a mild flu. I wasn't sure if it was a side effect of the medicine or a herx. Do you also feel like you have the flu? I could still work and do what I need to do. It's so hard to tell what is what. Otherwise I feel pretty good on the medicine. I'm also on amoxicillin.

Thanks for your reply. I don't know if i'd say I feel like I've got the flu but I do seem to get hot flashes often thru out the day and even night. I guess I'll give a week.

Thanks
