You might want to mention it to your doctors to be sure that it is not an allergic reaction, but I think you have very little to worry about. Try to relax so that you can get through the startup side effects. For side effects, I would say that minocycline has almost none, and is certainly better than any standard antipsyhotic or antidepressant. Diarrhea is less frequent with minocyclne than it is with tetracycline.
If your doctors clear you for continuing with minocycline treatment, I would move forward and eventually consider going up to 200 mg/day. Dosing should be split to twice a day.
Happy New Year!
