Mysteriously caught chlamydia without sex. took doxycycline for a month straight. would that have cleared syphilis as well if caught during same time?

Here are some ...: Penicillin is the only proven Rx although Doxycycline 100 mg orally twice x 14 days has been an alternate Rx. To assure the effectiveness of treatment, still do nontreponemal tests (RPR, VDRL) timely as follow-up. More detail? Ask your treating Doc timely.
