I started Ivromectin a few weeks ago. I'm taking one pill every other day. I tried to go up to one a day but got diarrhea and went back down.

I haven't noticed any improvements. My muscles are getting weaker. I guess maybe I have ALS afterall.

Has anyone had improvement on Ivromectin?

I took ivermectin for about 10 days once, as part of a series of antiworm drugs. I think they all helped. I had diarrhea through that all. But, I didn't notice specific improvements instantaneously.

Maybe the muscles getting weaker are a form of herx reaction? Don't lose hope. It could be a good sign.

Sounds like you have a parasite problem to me. It takes a long time to get rid of them. You may want to pay attention to what is coming out of you to see if you can identify anything that might be worms. Sometimes, you may not see them. They aren't always big enough to see with the naked eye.

I week or so is a very short time to say it's over. Getting diarhea is a big signal to me that you may have them. Increased pain & weakness are big signs of parasites, too - but it also may mean other things, as well.
