A member asked:
Can a breast abscess cause sepsis even though on doxycycline? i dont know what symptoms to look for but im nauseated but that might be the antibiotic as i didnt eat much with it . thank you?

Nausea is the most common side effect of doxycycline, especially when taking the pill with an empty stomach. Sepsis is most often causing severe malaise, high fever and chill. Take care.
