concerned about taking minocin

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone,

I am experiencing some indecisiveness over here.

I have had a prescription for Minocin for about 2 weeks but I haven't started it

yet.

I am putting it off because I am trying to get a candida infection under control

before I start using Minocin. I think this is a smart approach because I know

the Minocin will only cause more yeast overgrowth.

But there is a part of me that is concerned about taking the Minocin even though

I had success with it before. When I took it back in 2001 I didn't know much

about anything; now I am very well-informed about health and about the side

effects that antibiotics have on the immune system. I spent about 4 years

trying to get yeast under control after taking minocin and never completely

eradicated it.

Has anyone else on this group experienced this kind of confusion when making a

decision as to whether or not to go on the antibiotic protocol? I guess I have

been feeling awful for so long that I can't make a decision these days.

To put it another way, I am so confused. Help. I would love to hear your

thoughts and comments.
