ibromyalgia
"Within the first few days of starting Savella the pain in my arms and legs had disappeared and I was more alert during the day.  I had slight nausea and sadness as I completed the titration process, but these symptoms did eventually go away.   One of the best things that happened during this time was that my weight stabilized after steadily gaining for 6 months due to the constant exhaustion.  Unfortunately my neck and back pain initially worsened but returned to my personal base line after a few weeks.  This pain has not gone away, but stayed with me.  My only problem may be something unique to me - It took away my drive to be active.  I finally have the energy, but now have no desire.  Wish I knew how to work this out."
