Yeah, I'll post it. Judging from its side effects Savella is an unsafe drug with more in common with other serotonergic antidepressants. Anti-serotonin drugs like cyproheptadine, dyphenhydramine, and mirtazapine can improve symptoms.Yes, progesterone ..going for blood tests and will see if I can up it. And aspirin, I have to be careful because of stomach burning/pain. It doesn't seem to help too much with pain...but maybe in long run it would help. Are there better drugs than Savella ? Looking forward to podcast . Will I find it here on forum?
For aspirin, you could get famotidine OTC or from your doctor and that will protect against the ulcers, as well as dissolving aspirin in hot water and adding glycine and/or baking soda. 1-2 grams before bed can greatly lessen pain the following day.
