Has anyone else had their chronic pain disappear while on Paxlovid?

This is my second time on Paxlovid, my second time getting Covid. My first time I was a lot sicker and I do remember the taste after taking the Paxlovid was truly terrible. This time it's not so bad. I think because I knew it was coming, I took it with food, like with my breakfast in the a.m. and a snack at the nighttime one. Also, this time I've had a lot more nausea, so I've been using some Odansetron sublingual tabs for that. It also seems to help.
Good luck. The truth is, it's still way better than a really bad course of Covid.

Were you by chance taking meds for high cholesterol? If you were, and your doctor told you to stop taking it while you were taking paxlovid, that maybe the reason. Certain. Stain medications can cause chronic pain. Therefore, stopping that medication maybe the reason your pain has subsided. Also, it maybe due to the fact that your activity has no doubt declined. Sometimes, all you really needed was rest so your aching body can heal. Just my two cents…
