Pseudotumor Cerebri
"I have been taking this medicine for a few weeks now. My neurologist looked in my eyes and caught the Pseudotumor Cerebri. He immediately sent me for a brain scan and a lumbar puncture the next day. He thinks it was caused by minocycline which I had been taking for my acne. I am also having to see an optometrist on a regular basis to check for vision loss. My neurologist took me off propranolol(headache preventative), the antibiotic, and all my prescription face creams. I am on 750mg right now but will be on 1000mg in a few weeks if tolerated well. My massive headaches are gone, the heartbeat in my ear is gone. The only side effects I have are the tingling in hands and feet, sodas taste flat, my appetite is gone, and I am tired a lot. I have to have blood work often."
