I took tetracycline or 2 years one i was taken off I had all the symptoms of Lupus. Now I have Drug Induced Lupus for life.  There is over 17 medications that will bring drug induced lupus symptoms back.

Use of the tetracycline antibiotics group is problematic; they can........
Stain developing teeth (even when taken by the mother during pregnancy)
Discolor permanent teeth (yellow-gray-brown), from infancy and childhood to eight years old
Not to be taken at the same time as indigestion remedies (common antacids and over-the-counter heartburn medicines)
Cause skin photosensitivity. so exposure to the sun or intense light is not recommended
Cause drug-induced lupus, and hepatitis
Cause microvesicular fatty liver
Cause tinnitus
Suppress sperm production.[9]
Interfere with methotrexate by displacing it from the various protein binding sites
Cause breathing complications, as well as anaphylactic shock, in some individuals
Affect bone growth of the fetus, so should be avoided during pregnancy

Dizziness could be highblood pressure related to pain from migraines.

I have had severe migraines now for over three years that are daily and several times a day starting at age 40.  My aura starts with pin pricks in my fingers and face,chin,neck then nausea then the migraine,in back of neck left side. These migraines have caused severe high blood pressure. I am on Verapamil ER 240mg, for blood pressure. This has helped the dizziness and vomiting. Also for nausea I take Prochlorperazine.  I also take diazepam for muscle spasms in neck,shoulders,back. Plus two at bed that help me sleep. I am able to get up in am without feeling any effects of medication.  I take topiramate 150 mg which has done wonders. 5 days before starting my cycle I take Acetazolamide 500mg ERthen stop after my cycle. I also administer Imitrex injections at home. I have tried all medications for onset and this is the only one that works (most of time) for me.  I heard maxalt melt is excellent for onset. I also take hydrocodone-IBUPROFEN 750 2 tabs every 8 hours.  Now to the part of it hurtn the relationship.  Yes it split up my marriage.  My husband had migraines first. He still does. Now with seizures.  I never understood his pain until I myself dealt with migraine. He is on disability. I go before judge in May. Migraines have changed my life.  
Do you know you can go to the Emergency Room for Migraines.  They will give you IV with nausea meds and other meds to relieve migraine.  Also I had nerve conduction test called EMG. Fibromyalgia can cause headaches too. Dont really know your history.

Hello everyone, my name is Dennis and i am 30 years old . I have had a fighting battle of being dizzy, nausea, anxious, headaches, and sinus problems. I did alot of research and found alot of people were having my same simptums with no good answers, i have been through it all, from gi tests to my doctor telling me it's just depression or anxiety. I didn't feel that was the problem but i took some different types of meds and all of them made the dizzyness worst. So i went back to the internet and searched and searched til i can across candida. There is a at home test you can do and a list of symptoms. Come to findout this is what is rong with me. I took tetracycline when i was younger for about a year and a half t two years for acne. So check it out it's called candida maybe this is whats going on with some of you... good luck everyone

Haha you talk about someone else "needing Jesus", yet the way you talk shows that you should listen to your own advice. Additionally, I believe she posted that she was UNDERweight and childLESS... and I quote "...but not overweight, more underweight and I don't have kids.", so get your **** straight you dumb ****. Also, she hasn't seen a doctor yet so there is no possible way that she could "listen to their 'diagnosises'". You also mentioned education in a post right after the first one you posted, so here's a little lesson for you: you have punctuation errors (starting off your first post without capitalization, and in your last post you should have a comma between treadmill and education), it's grammatically incorrect to start a sentence with 'and', you said 'diagnosises' when it's either diagnosis (singular form) or diagnoses (plural form), and you should probably use the correct words in their correct places; i.e. "Your spelling and punctuation is worse that a 'kindergardener'." Shouldn't that 'that' be a 'than'? Oh, and 'kindergardener' is spelled 'kindergartener', just to enlighten you. Next time you try to humiliate and degrade someone you've never met, check yourself first.
Go **** yourself,
Carissa.

I lot of the symptoms sound like thyroid disease ask your doctor to check one tube of blood. I had all of these symptoms and they make you feel like your nuts etc.. One day I had a female doctor in 1996 actually listened to me. Look Up thyroid dease and see it for yourself and demand to be checked just in case.Take a thryoid pill all natural everyday and this can happen to men and women at any age. It helps a lot with majority of symptoms.

For all the people that feel dizzy and nausea all the time, go to the doctor and have them test you for vertigo. I have had it since May 2009 and I have seen doctor after doctor after doctor before they started treating me to chronic vertigo. It really was not fun.  Also, I see a neurologist for my headaches and I have migraines. So all in all I am on meds for vertigo and migraines. There is not much they can do for vertigo but meds and physical therapy but it does help. The migraine meds help and my neurologist thinks the vertigo is really migraine symptoms. I would really start with a neurologist and see if its migraines or vertigo. Let me tell you from experience the vertigo will most likely go away for a while but come back here and there. It really *****!!! Good Luck to everyone and I hope this helps a bit.

Hi Ema,

Hope you recover but it is possible it could your dura mater which is the inner central part of your muscles and bones in the head and neck region. A good chiropractor can assess your symptoms and adjust this part.  Once the chiropractor aligns areas that you need adjusting, you should be 100% okay. Good luck There were two scientists far back as medieval and they said " in all illness, look first to the spine'   I tried it three years ago for sinus infection and boy did he rub hard and adjust my cervical region and back and suddenly I was getting better. Plus I was able to drain when I need to drain from this horrible sinus infection. Take care of you.

It also could be liquid in the mastoid region of the ear. Just found out that's a good chance where my chronic dizziness and light headedness is coming. Just have to send him (the doc) most recent copy of my mri to find out. I also have to wait 2 months though to see if it'll drain from the hole in my ear i also have LOL but ... that's also an option to get checked out. Obviously, the way they can tell if it's there or not is thru an mri.

Oh my God I used to think I was going crazy when I first felt dizzy and all the other symptoms everyone has described. It all started when I was 19 years old and very healthy and active at the time.  I am now 53 yrs old and I still suffer from them but this past weekend they got so bad I had to go to the ER. I have been to so many doctors and no answer> Now they say it might be the blood pressure meds they gave me not too long ago. I feel so bad for all the young persons that are writing here. I used to feel the same way and nobody believed me .MY life would have been different if it wasn't for this sickness or whatever it is?

i was looking through these comments to try and find a solution to my wifes problem. i have now realised through reading the first few comments that this illness is known as 3 child syndrome. it is when u get bored of being home with the children, and start the over use of facebook on mobile phone and laptop. also causing depression, trying very best to get husband to feel sorry for u and quit work. then husband gets abuse for not bringing money in. obvious solution. get a job, and let husband stay at home
