Suggest Treatment For Nausea, Fatigue And Sore Throat
I have nausea, very fatigued and lethargic and weak going on three weeks. My skin is super sensitive with itching and burning sensation on my face, arms and inner thighs. Joints are tender and ache. Sore throat. Currently on Doxycline taken 2 x s daily for 5 days now. Had two prednisone shots plus pills.
Good day to you. Thanks for your query. I am sorry that you have been suffering from last 3 weeks. You have sorethroat with joints pain and skin rash. most likely you are suffering from lyme disease. You are taking doxycycline which is recommended treatment. I would suggest you to take doxycycline for 14 days. This is the recommended guidelines. You can continue prednisolone as advised by your doctor. Take some antiinflammatory medicine like brufen 400mg 3 times a day. Drink plenty of water and fluids. keep your self well hydrated. Eat light and healthy food like fruits, boiled rice, chicken broth, so that it is easily digested and you will get nutrients needed for the recovery. I wish you speedy recovery.
