Well i've been given Doxycycline which is meant to be good, so won't have to self medicate........3rd doc agreed i got Lymes as in other thread just hope they give me a long enough course.
I had doxy for lymes a few years back - side effects for me were horrible - a month of headaches and nausea - you've just got to ride through it. Doc said it affects people in many different ways some get no issues at all. I hated it but it much preferable to lymes.
I still prescribe it spelt with a "Y" as in amoxycillin ...... I also put a "U" in colour and an "E" at the end of axe.
Don't bow to the American way... LOL
Doxycycline (spelt with a very british "Y") has few side effects and doesn't normally give problems. Skin sensitivity isn't a problem with the british weather
