Day 2 of taking doxycycline for a uti and my head feels like its going to explode, worst headache ever, is this typical?

Could be yes or no: Headaches are multifactorial. Could be dehydration so drink plenty of fluids. Could be the doxy. Could be many other reasons. Never knew doxy to be a great treatment for most garden-variety utis, however.
