ibromyalgia
"Suffered with Fibromyalgia for several years. I was asked to try all the antidepressants, etc. Their side effects rendered me more useless, not able to function at all in daily life. I had taken Vicoprofen 1/2 tablet (half by choice) 3-4 x&#039;s day for several years and Lidoderm patch every morning on my cervical spine, hips and knee&#039;s. I had no desire to live. I was going through the motions. 3 weeks ago I started Savella. 1/4 the recommended dose for 10 days. Then 1/4 the next dose. 1st week I felt a difference. By week 2 my husband said he hadn&#039;t heard me mention pain. I cautiously said I&#039;m in no pain and on no pain pills or patches and don&#039;t need to nap and can sleep. I&#039;m very active and can do anything. Start VERY slow, with low doses. Now on 25mg once in the morning with a full breakfast! "
