Asymptomatic and Prescribed Doxycycline Hyclate & Moxifloxacin HCL
Hi all, I (25 M) asymptomatically have mycoplasma genitalium. I know I have it because my GF tested positive->was treated->we had sex-> she tested positive again. So, I finally went to urgent care and let them know that I need to be treated. They prescribed me Doxy (1 100MG capsule twice a day for 1 week) and Moxi (1 400MG table every day for 1 week). She took Doxy and let me know to avoid the sun but other than that I'm not really worried. But, after researching Moxifloxacin, I'm really afraid. I've already read all of the reddit horror stories, and I'm especially scared because I already have achilles tendonitis and apparently a side effect is your tendons flaring up/being damaged. (I'm not 100% sure I just read it online) In all honesty, the multi-page essay of warnings/side effects was scary enough. Is it 100% necessary that I take both the Doxy and Moxy? Or will I be treated with only Doxy? I'm a generally healthy individual, but my job can be pretty taxing/stressful and I'm worried that I'm not in the mental shape to take Moxi.
