What Causes Low Oxygen Levels While On Doxycycline?

My oxygen levels keep dropping even though feel fine. Went to Dr for. Ladder infection and my o,ygen was down to 81. I noticed on my previous tests my MPV was 7.3. I also have trouble with muscle &joint pain for whi h I take oxycontin &oxycodone & muscle relaxers. Also on doxycy Lin which seems to help pain as thought may have Lyme s but doesn t show up in blood but have many symptoms. Could my low oxygden be caused by that. Also xrays show lungs clear and sound good.

Gee, there's literally hundreds of cases of people dying with low oxygen JUST IN MY COUNTY from narcotics. I think it shows distorted thinking to look for causes other than narcotics.
