Yeah I agree with you Scott. It was at the 3 week mark I ditched Doxy. Now with Tetra, it is the 6 week mark. Can't say I didn't give a good go of it. I really stuck to it. But at some point, enough is enough already, ya know?
> While I was going through my trial of doxycycline, I continued with my other drug trials. Since an adequate trial of doxycycline can be as long as a few months, I thought this combination strategy made sense. I made no changes for the first few weeks, though, just to see what my acute reaction to doxycycline was.

However, this worsening should only last a couple of weeks at most. Beyond this, if I were to feel worse, I would have discontinued it.
