Re:Minocycline and Headache

[Guest guest]

hi i took mino for 3 years and went into complete remission after 1 yr.

after 3 yrs though i started getting bad dizzy nausea spells so had to

stop and RA came back. i think if i had dropped to low dose for

maintenance and took care of gut issues i would have been able to stay

on it successfully as many ppl have. have you posted on the road back

board or the rheumatic support group? ppl there have loads of

experience with the antibiotic protocol for RA.

i got migraines when i took low dose naltrexone for RA. do you have this

reaction to other meds? if so it could be that your liver detoox

pathways are not detoxing meds properly. or it could-be die-off.

Greetings-

I've been on Mino about 2 months, started having massive migraines,

nausea, dizziness. Called my rheumy and am off Mino for 5-7 days to

see if the headaches stop.

Anybody with experience with this kind of problem? Thanks!

Hi -

I don't know the other boards you mentioned. Could you give me some

pointers?

I hand't thought of die off- that may be at least some of the

problem. I work hard on detox- milk thistle, juicing, and the

like.

Thanks!
