Any info on Savella??

[mouse]

Okay I just convinced my psychiatrist to ween me off zoloft so I can try savella but now I am having buyers remorse. She really didn't want me too and was concerned because she feels like the savella, which may help with the fibro, will do nothing for the bladder. She and my pain specialist really want me to try nerontin but I am so sick of the weight gain and when I was on Lyrica and elavil they did nothing for my frequency or pelvic floor pain. So can anyone tell me how savella affected there bladder....good, bad or nothing? And does it really work for pain?? I would hate to go through those first couple of weeks of hell adjusting to it for no benefits!

I haven't tried Savella but am just bumping this post hoping someone can answer becasue I am also considering it for my bladder.

lol...Good idea thank you! I know if your not in the new posts forget about ever being seen. The problem is it's a fairly new drug so I don't think too many people have tried it!! I just wish one drug would work on them all, fibro pain, ic pain and frequency.....Oh wouldn't that be nice!!

My internist (monitors all my other Dr.'s & answers texts 24/7) was so excited that maybe this would be the wonder drug for me (FM, IC, migraines, failed back syndrome) unfortunetaly within the first week I broke out in a rash that went systemic. Oh well back to the drawing board.

Oh I am so sorry to hear that because it is disappointing when yet another drug fails!!! Mine just usually don't do a thing and cause alot of weight gain! Was it difficult comming off it?? I heard that could be a nightmare!!
