I'm so glad to have come across this site! I've been feeling very weird sensations in my hands, feets and lips. I too have had the "pins and needles" feeling along with the "my foot fell asleep feeling, but it's not really asleep" ... Also I've been getting the same tingle in my lower lip. I was really glad to see someone said it felt like rain. Multiple times I've asked "are we getting wet?" I felt a misting feeling on my hands and cheeks. This is one weird medicine! I too have felt sick many times and even vomitted once. The best thing I found was to eat at least a little something before taking the pill rather then during or after. Also, have severe sun burn on fingers and toes even though I used 45 sun block. I'll agree stay out of the sun!

I have been taking Doxcycline for my acne for less than a week and today, an hour after swallowing the pill with a sip of water and no food in my stomach I felt naseauted and dizzy to the point where i could not stand up. Five minutes later I vomitted and had to call in sick. I am wondering if it is worth it. I don't want to fear taking this pill everyday, but want to get rid of my acne. The side effects should be written on the side of the prescription, but they are not. I am skeptical about this drug.

I am taking this medication for adult acne as all other antibiotics have not worked. I have been taking it 2 times per day for about a week. I have major burning sensations in my stomach/esophagus. I have woken up twice during the middle of the night and thrown from the spasms. The second time I vomitted, there was actually blood! And they gave me this wretched medication because they said accutane would be too hard on my system?!?

I've been taking doxycycline for a few days now. The first few days i felt dizzy, and I had shortness of breath and a heavy chest, the next day I vomitted, and had sharp pains in my stomach. I realized it was because I didn't take it with food, now I take it after a few bites of a meal and basically try to cover the pill with food and liquid so it doesnt upset my stomach and its working...but I'm surprised this antibiotic is has so many side effects..I also have chronic headaches and advil doesn't work at all. I advise anyone taking this medication to eat it with your food or shortly after, especially in the morning.
It seems to be clearing up my bladder infection though, I couldn't take two medications at once so I took this one for a bacterial infection, and I think its killing 2 birds with one stone.
