This really is helping me with dizziness and cognitive function. The only thing that has really helped in a long time, HOWEVER, I am having the side effect of hot flashes. I'm not going to live through these Hot flashes. they are making me NUTS. Do they go away??????? I know, weird question to lymies, but we've all tried everything, right?

My mom is taking Savella for fibromyalgia and pain symptoms. It gave her some dizziness and nausea when she first switched meds. Took about 2wks for her to adjust to the full dose. Now she has no side effects. Says it is working better than her old meds.

I had a friend that took savella and at a month she started to have really high blood pressure and had to stop it. Keep an eye on that.
