I am so relieved to know others have had immediate pain when bitten! I also woke up at 4AM with intense pain in my side that felt like appendicitis or something horrible. I found a tick on the site of the pain, removed it and the pain went on for hours. I stopped at urgent care and they told me many people react this way because after our area was sprayed, the insects became more virulent. I was also given doxy and the site only has dull pain a day later. No one is trying to get attention by sharing this experience. You feel like a weirdo when the bite is so painful and find relief when you read others have had similar reactions to tick bites.
