    • Close Fibromyalgia

      Started having severe aches and pains in 1999...had bil plantar faciitis..bad...after that I've had tendonitis somewhere all the time; tennis; elbow; shoulders; hips, just about everywhere. I used to take Wellbutrin and actually was doing sort of OK while I was on that, then stopped it last fall. This last summer, I crashed and burned..started Savella and was officially diagnosed.

      Treatments

      Guaifenesin Working / Worked
      I really think it worked...but had surgery and stopped taking it...haven't been able to get back on the regimen again
      Neurontin Not Working
      Tried...didn't help
      Ultram Working / Worked
      Works pretty good when I really need something extra
      Zanaflex Working / Worked
      Take it at night for sleep...helps I guess. I also take a Unisom and some Tylenol with it.
