Hello. I'm being treated for chronic Lyme with 100mg minocycline twice daily. Currently on day 3 and dizziness is getting worse. Any idea how long it goes on? I'm on a 3 month course.

I’m guessing it’s a Herx. Detox as much as possible! Sauna, Epson salts bath, lemon water... it will pass!

That's good to know. Dizziness is one of the side effects but I thought it would subside in a couple of days but it's getting worse. I will do more detoxing and hope for the best. Thanks!

about 5 days it will ease

Hi Meems - welcome!

Mino caused dizziness/off balance when I first started it... but that went away after awhile being on it.
It happened pretty much right away so I know it wasn’t a herx.

Hi Girlie, thanks. Yep, mine started right away too and the neuropathy in my feet flared up the second day. I'm new to this treatment as we all have been at some point. There's a lot to learn!

The neuropathy is most likely a herx.
Hope it resolves soon!
