Guest guest Posted July 12, 2003 Report Share Posted July 12, 2003 Hi , Yeah, this has not been a pleasant experience. I am now having a reaction to the tetracycline my dermatologist has me on. My whole body feels like it is burning and itching like a bad sunburn. I started the pills on wed evening and by Fri morning, I was itching and burning like crazy. I called my derm, and she was gone for the day, then I called my PCP and he was out too, so I called the pharmacist, and he told me to call my Dr. I almost called Dr Don, but he already thinks I am a freak. Guess I will just suffer through until monday. Hope your summer is going great! > > Message: 5 > Date: Tue, 8 Jul 2003 15:30:09 EDT > From: TreeBee123@... > Subject: Re: Folliculitis, anyone had it? > > Wow , I have never heard of such a thing. you poor girl!
