I can not read your post because it shows up with a lot of random letters inbetween words. So you may already be doing this, but it is important that doxicycline is given WITH food or it makes them very nauseous. If she will not eat, you should give her food with a syringe immediately before

I definitely think it could be from the doxicycline. I would try to get some food into her right before or after pilling her. If she will not eat, try giving her some Gerbers or beechnut chicken baby food. Most cats go crazy for that. You can syringe it into her mouth if necessary. You can also
