I just started doxy 100mg 2 x day and want to stay on that but I can't deal with the anxiety caused by the Samento and Banderol. Can I just stop? Call in to LLMD but no response.

I heard from the LLMDs office. He's out of town but the nurse said to go ahead and stop the Samento and Banderol since I'm only taking 4 drops of each morning and evening.

I'm so sorry that you are dealing with that much anxiety! I'm glad your doc's office got back to you though!

Please be aware that 20 mgs of Doxy a day will only stop the bacteria from replicating, it takes 400 - 600 mgs a day to be able to kill the Lyme bacteria. I hope your doc will be back soon and you can get in to see him to find out what to do next.

Traveler - he comes back on Monday. I'm taking 200 mgs of doxy a day so at least they won't be replicating. Thanks for your concern.

I believe my LLMD is at the conference in San Diego, CA on Lyme Disease.

Wonderful that he is attending the conference!! I'm glad that you will be able to find out what he would like you to do soon too. Please do let us know what he says and how you are doing as soon as you are up to it!

I'm still experiencing anxiety today without the Samento and Banderol but no where near as bad with them. The doxy is evidently causing it now.

Don't forget that not only is anxiety a symptom of these diseases, but adrenal issues can bring anxiety with it. It may not be your medicine at all.
