    I’m new to the forum & protocol, thankful to have found it. Just started Minocin this week, 100mg 2x/day M-W-F. Left work yesterday and went to ER for chest pain and shortness of breath, felt like previous pericarditis. Diagnosed with costochondritis. Herx reaction maybe?

    Well I had the same kind of reaction after doxy. They checked my heart did ecg and eco and found nothing . I think it is because of both inflammation itself and tetracycline reaction.

    Lyme or some of its coinfections can cause heart issues. It seems like quite a few people end up being diagnosed with lyme or suspecting it.

    Mild reflux, mostly gone,mild ild, skin hardening (continued softening and some parts normal again) Impaired liver function, now normal after 1 year and CK, LDH all normal again, 14 mo after starting ap.

    Minocin m-f 2x, antibiotic rotation, ldn 4.5, cellcept 3000, probiotics, Monolaurens, Olive leaf extract, fish
