So I've fixed my eczema for the past 4 months by eating Ray's way and more importantly adding VIT K + D - which was the main culprit of getting rid of ezcema first time since my 20's. I've been eczema free up until 7 days ago when I started experimenting with doxycycline:
1 day: 300mg doxy
2 day: 300mg doxy
3 day: 200mg doxy
4 day: 200mg doxy
5 day: 200mg doxy
6 day: 100mg doxy
And ever since my third day my eczema is back on my face. Redness, flakiness, itchiness. And also very dry/itchy and flaky scalp. I've also stopped using VIT K + D two days before I started using doxy - since I ran out. I don't know if that would slow down the oxidative damage and maybe not cause eczema to such extent.
Energy-wise I'm ok. My chest pains have increased a bit compared to the way things were before which is also indicative of some respiratory stress.
I'm definitely stopping the use of doxy starting today and hopefully my skin will improve. I'm just hoping it won't take a long time to do so.
I also know that Ray has says that doxycycline is just a higher potency VIT K - being a quinone - which in my experience is far from true.
"Here, we report that in human cell lines, commonly used concentrations of doxycycline change gene expression patterns and concomitantly shift metabolism towards a more glycolytic phenotype, evidenced by increased lactate secretion and reduced oxygen consumption. We also show that these concentrations are sufficient to slow proliferation."
"In our study, we show that the antibiotic doxycycline is effective in targeting glioblastoma through inducing mitochondrial dysfunctions and oxidative stress."
1 day: 300mg doxy
2 day: 300mg doxy
3 day: 200mg doxy

Doxycycline Alters Metabolism and Proliferation of Human Cell Lines
The tetracycline antibiotics are widely used in biomedical research as mediators of inducible gene expression systems. Despite many known effects of tetracyclines on mammalian cells–including inhibition of the mitochondrial ribosome–there ...
