ibromyalgia
"I have suffered from Chronic Lyme Disease and Fibromyalgia for twenty years and have been on high-dose morphine, Neurontin, Lyrica, Cymbalta and others, all of which had very bad side-effects and awful withdrawal syndromes. Three weeks ago I started Savella, but titrated very slowly 12.5mg/day for two weeks and now 25 mg per day. There were some pretty bad days of side-effects in the first week and still some nausea and difficulty sleeping, but the benefits are much better than any other drug I&#039;ve used for pain and fatigue. My pain was always at 9.5, and is now mostly around 4-6 (a vast improvement). Unlike all the other SSRIs I&#039;ve tried, Savella gives me energy and new optimism!"
