Guest guest Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 I was miserable before doxy, miserable on it, and now even more miserable without it but it is still another 6 weeks till I see Dr Franco and I am so nauseus I am so dried out. I cant stand it. I keep hoping the AP therapy will help the Sjogren, peripheral neuropahty and the constant dizziness. I dont have clear diagnosis for the last one but hope it too is mycoplasma caused. I just went from 8 bad on doxy to 10 off it so I really want to get back on. I dont know what to do. I want my tests with him to be accurate. I am takign LDN and now worry that it may affect his testing. I didnt stop taht just the Doxy. Any opionions? Also does anyone know if the LDN should also be stopped before seeimg him? Thought it said on his web site that immune boosters should be stopped too and I think that what LDN is....

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 Hi Phil, his RN said to keep taking it becasue getting off can be bad, I told her I was only on a few weeks though. But his web site says to not take. I am so miserbale that I feel like I shoudl be doing something, I mean, its not like in a month I will be cured but I dont want it affecting lab results when already it is hard to detect mycoplasma sometimes as it is. I wonder if taking it a month woudl really make a diff but since i am going out of my way to see him I hate to mess things up.... phillipstradling <phillipstradling@...> wrote: Vicki If you're going to Dr. Franco's office, could you call him now and ask him? phil Re: rheumatic Frustrated, want to take my doxy despite upcoing Franco appt I was miserable before doxy, miserable on it, and now even more miserable without it but it is still another 6 weeks till I see Dr Franco and I am so nauseus I am so dried out.

Guest guest Posted September 1, 2007 Report Share Posted September 1, 2007 Hi Vicki My wife's going to Dr. Franco too. He's a great doctor. He knows what he is doing. I'm sure he can work around it.

Guest guest Posted September 2, 2007 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 Hi Phill. May I ask what condition Dr Franco is seeing your wife for? Has she seen him yet? Did he do any IV's? His office told me he doenst see much Sjogrens patients and that it is much harder to treat than RA, Scleroderma etc...which is very depressing. Hope you have a great holiday weekend. You are such a great husband to be on the board on her belhalf. phillipstradling <phillipstradling@...> wrote: Hi Vicki My wife's going to Dr. Franco too. He's a great doctor.

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2007 Report Share Posted September 4, 2007 Maybe you should call the Dr. and see if you can have the medication switched? I was very nauseous on tetracycline and couldn't stand it anymore even though before it worked just fine. So I called the Dr. office and they switched me to minocycline over the phone and it's much better! There is no need to suffer.

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2007 Report Share Posted September 4, 2007 I think there was a misunderstanding. I am not dizzy from any med, I am dizzy on my own. Thanks for your message though. oxana tbd <stalinkova@...> wrote: Maybe you should call the Dr. and see if you can have the medication switched?
