I tried ~125 mg of tetracycline last night. I'm noticing an improvement in my complexion, sleeping better, less bloating, more energy, increased body temperature, decreased white coating on tongue, but also sensitive gut, increased bowel movements, and hemorrhoids. I also have a metallic taste in my mouth which is an ordinary side effect. The negative effects could be from a cortisol reduction.
I've done a lot of reading on antibiotics here on the forum, but it seems like it's hit or miss for a lot of people. Some people get permanent results from one course, other people temporary results, other people nothing, still others nothing but side effects. I was wondering if this could be related to dose or duration of the course.
I know that Peat generally recommends smallish doses of antiobiotics, but I was wondering if anyone has any opinions on dosing tetracycline? Would very small doses like 20 mg or so cause antibiotic resistance with a net negative to gut health long-term?
