Hi Charlie,

Let me also welcome you to the SJS World and family!  I'm so glad that you had a chance to look around the board!

It looks like you've gotten some good advice and there's not much I can add.

Take care of yourself -

I read your post, but not the replies. (may be a stupid move!)

I have had Lyme disease and I can tell you that docycycline can and will make you dizzy if you have Lyme or some other infection. Doxy crosses the blood brain barrier. What you are experiencing may be a Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction. That would also explain the weakness and even the depression.

Like we say on the Lyme board... "not everything is Lyme"

same here.. not everything is Sjogren's

It's always good to keep that in mind.
