I've been on Spiro for about 4 months now with seemingly no issues. I had also been taking my birth control orsythia and cephalexin. I had taken doxy for the first 2 months of Spiro until my derm decided to switch me to cephalexin. I went back on the doxy for the past week and a half and for the past 3 days I've experienced severe pain in my upper right chest into my back. I can't eat anything or swallow or else the pain will dramatically intensify and I'll throw up. I'm also experiencing numbness in my right arm. The only thing that seems to relieve the pain is burping, so I think it's gas related. I also broke up with my boyfriend of a year and a half a few days ago and have been very stressed out. Should I go off my meds? I'm afraid to because I don't want my awful acne to come back!
Yes! Thank you! I've decided to stop the doxy I dont think my body can handle it. Does any one else on spironolactone experience a week of crazy pms break outs and break though bleeding? Because I'm going on to my 5th month now and I'm pretty clear for about 25 days a month and the other 5 I'm a complete mess. Can anyone relate?
I just started spiro 2 weeks ago. Im breaking out like crazy. Don't know if it's from the spiro or because my actual period started a few days after taking it. It's making my period actually longer and it's killing me. I think I'm breaking out from post final exam stress maybe?
I never had side effects from doxy when I was on it except going to the bathroom a lot lol but it wasn't often. I think I ratheer switch back to doxy though.
