Yes, I had shinbone pain for a few weeks on the Marshall Protocol. I had to cut back on my Zithromax because it woke me up at night.

About the ribs, I don't know. Before antibiotics I used to get bouts of rib pain but I assumed it was in the connective tissue. I did have a rib xray at one point though because it seemed so like it was in the lowest right front rib.

Sorry to hear you are hurting.

You didn't say what you have and what you are being treated with.. and I am too tired to do a search right now.. please forgive me .... so it is hard to pin point the exact problem. Might I ask... have you been tested/treated for Bartonella?

Folks with Bartonella often get the shin bone pains and their shin bones can be very tender to touch.. so I was just curious.

I also have the horrible rib pain... right now as a matter of fact ouch this sucks ouch .. and I am not herxing.. unless stress and/or a hot biscuit causes herxes! HA!

Whatever the reason.. it might be nice to know it does go away when treated properly.

Hope that helps ease your mind... and I hope you feel MUCH better real soon!
