New pain drug Savella - anyone?

[RDAC]

Anyone using Savella, the new Fibro drug? Higher norepiniephrine than Lyrica, and many seem to give it high praise -

I've tried Savella for my Sjogrens and Fibromyalgia. I stayed on it for 3 or 4 months and did not see any benefit. I stopped it on my own accord and I did "wean" off it because I didn't know if stopping cold might be harmful.

I've been on Lyrica for more than a year and it has done more for my eye pain (the trigeminal neuralgia) I have in my left eye than anything. It also helps some of the Sjogrens and Fibro neuropathy. Hope this has been helpful. Lucy
