three years ago when I first started on Savella it was wonderful from the very first pill. I felt like someone had unwound a vise that had been keeping me crushed down (the pain). Unfortunately, as my illness progressed we had gotten to the highest dose my insurance would cover twice a day and it wasn't giving me relief.

Now I am on cymbalta and additional pain meds and barely having relief :-(
