hi everyone...
i was on tetracycline for 7 months for mild/moderate acne. it cleared me up, but now i'm experiencing weird symptoms such as fasciculations (muscle twitching), bad allergies, fatigue, and restless sleep. i've been to 3 doctors already and no one knows what is wrong. i really think that these symptoms are related to the antibiotics i was taking earlier this year. i read that they can produce an overabundance of yeast in the system and can therefore affect the nervous system, digestive system etc. has anyone had experience with this? how can i bring this up to my doctor? i'm scared that they won't take me seriously, but i know for a fact that i started feeling horrible after taking the tetracycline for so long. please help
