> My initial reaction to the higher dosage (200 mg/day) of minocycline has been a mixture of good and bad. I feel somewhat more depressed. My affect is flat. However, my cognitive impairments are less severe. My memory is better and my thinking is not as slow. Hopefully, this is a prelude to a more robust antidepressant response.
I had a couple of good days, but things have since leveled off to a degree of improvement that I find disappointing. Minocycline is very obviously helping me, but I just don't know if it will get me more than 50% well; a level at which I anticipate being able to return to work. I will give this a few more days. If there are no signs of further recovery, I will add back prazosin. I was hoping to avoid taking prazosin because it reduces my libido.
