ibromyalgia
"I have my doctorate in Clinical Counseling and am very aware of &quot;placebo&quot; effects of medication. I&#039;ve had Chronic Fatigue and Fibromyalgia for years and have tried many pain medications and antidepressants.   Three months ago my physician prescribed Savella and IT HAS GIVEN ME MY LIFE BACK. I had some side effects, not too uncomfortable, but continued Savella and am so glad I did. If you are suffering from side effects, talk to your doctor and try to stick with Savella until your body adjusts.  Brain fog is gone, even if I feel tired! Physical pain not all gone but with fish oil tablets - all pain is gone and I can walk up and down steps, etc.
Fish oil: 1200 mg a day, 6 a day and more in the winter time.  Take care."
