I began Doxy in Sept of 2007. The first week into it I noticed the roof of my mouth felt strange, kind of rough and sore. I attributed it to the drug and figured it would go away once I was off of it. I began to get a very sore tongue which I attributed to candida....it was a little white too. I was on the drug for five weeks and the mouth symptoms never went away, just went on to become a chronic burning tongue and mouth. Scalded feelings in the mouth as though I had slurped boiling hot coffee. Also, noticed I began feeling very tired and melancholy on the drug....those symptoms have never really gone away. It's been nearly a year and I have tried multiple remedies for my mouth and nothing helps. Has anybody else had the burning and inflammation feeling in their oral cavity. It shows no outward signs.

Yes, while taking Doxcycline I too experienced the tingling burning tongue sensation. I was prescribed this due to sinus infection, which was only diagnosed after double vision started and I had a CT scan. I too have had extreme sun sensitivity, even with 50 sunscreen still burn and arms feel like burning sensation the minute the sun hits them. Toes and tops of hands are extremely sunburned looking and bumps and itching. Good luck to you-I am switching over to a nasal spray. tera
