Hello all! I recently had really bad bronchitis followed by an upper respitory infection. I was on quite a few medications and went through each one with no problem until it came to the doxycycline. I have a history of anxiety and it did a number on me so I stopped taking it after I started to feel so spacy and dizzy that I couldn't get through the day without an anxiety attack. Since then I've halted all drug use ( that was probably 9 days ago at this point ). Things weren't improving so I went to the ER and they noted I was dehydrated and gave me some IV fluids which made me feel better. The doctor mentioned I had a bladder infection and put me on Keflex (Cephalexin) 500mg x2 a day and I've noticed a spike in the volume of my tinnitus, which I've had most of my life but have been able to mostly ignore. Should I stop this medication? I have 3 days left.
I'll also venture to mention that throughout this entire ordeal I've had days of severe depression and anxiety, some of which came to a culmination tonight because I'm something of a self diagnosed hypochondriac. Oh how I long for the days of apathy.
Anyway, just reaching out because I found this forum during one of my "panic searches" and everyone seems so supportive!! Thanks.
