Anyone else have these side effects while on Ivermectin?
Even my fingertips hurt while I type. Last night my elbow was killing me, but it was fine when I woke up.
Right now my right quad hurts.
Odd stuff this Ivermectin.

Organism hides in the connective tissues. You will get floating pain. Interesting, huh?

Hi LymeLogged For me Lyme itself makes me feel that way. Last week even the top of my fingertips hurt. Today it's the slightest exertion brings cramping to my muscles; fingers, angles, legs etc. One thing that does seem to help me when it's really bad, is taking an epsom salt bath. I add 2-3 cups to running water and soak for at least 20 min, pat dry and don't put lotion on afterwards as the magnesium in the epsom salt will keep working for 15hrs or so. Or so I was told. I try to do this at least 2 to 3 times a week, and I have noticed a difference on the frequency of my pain/herxing symptoms. It does seem to work. Good Luck.
