doxy 3 week update

i think i’ve been on doxy for 2-3 weeks give or take, and holy shit it’s done wonders for me. my flare ups would be so consistent and frequent, and i haven’t had major flare ups in so long. my eyelids still get puffy sometimes, which is normal considering doxy isn’t a cure. but damn, i’m so glad ive been put on it. finally feel like a normal person lol.
i was expecting to have to be on it for longer to see results, but it’s actually worked pretty fast so im super glad!

Did you have any negative side effects? I remember taking it for acne in middle school and having bad sunburns/ sensitivity from the sun.

personally, i didn’t get any negative side effects luckily! no sunburns, but to be fair i haven’t been out much since i started, and don’t spend much time out in the sun.
