Taking Doxycycline For Bronchitis And Fever. Have Fibromyalgia. Excessive Sweating And Cough. Am I Recovering?

I am recovering from bronchitis . I have been taking doxyclycline and cough meds and home treatments as prescribed by my doctor. My question is this. Though I had a fever at the beginning until the doxy started to work, I did not take anything for it as I slept a lot. However, after ten days on the doxy my muscles still ached so I decided to take tylenol es one night even though I had had no fever four about four days now. I have fibromyalgia so I know the aching was part of the fm being exacerbated by the illness . However, when I took it, I sweated heavily all night, soaking the bed and pillows and slept better outside of the coughing. Why did I sweat so heavily AFTER taking the tylenol with no fever than I did when I didn t take it with ANY fever in the beginning? Or was I experienced NOT due to Tylenol, but illness recovery? I ve never had that happen before.

hi,
what you experienced is due to the tylenol effect you are in illness recovery, it is nothing to do with fibromyalgia you are suffering from,
it could also be the effect of doxycycline that you have been taking,
i would suggest if it persists then other causes need to be ruled out.
suggest get a review by a physician
hope to have answered your query
get well soon.
