			<title>What are some pro&#039;s and con&#039;s of Robaxin? And does it actually help with muscle spasms?</title>
			<description><![CDATA[
So my doctor originally prescribed me 5mg of flexeril for fibromyalgia and severe leg spasms but it stopped working, so she now has me taking Robaxin 500mg. Has anyone had any success with this drug? What side effects should I look out for (like possible drowsiness)? And should I take it at night or in the morning?

I can&#039;t find any cause right now-it just feels like pure anxiety from my brain, primal-like I feel when I get panic attacks. I&#039;m not having one though, and this has been going on since I started it last night.

I&#039;ve been taking 2x a day 30mg of Cymbalta for a week now in the hopes it&#039;ll help with my Fibromyalgia. Almost as soon as I began taking it I started with excessive sweating. The sweating can happen when I&#039;m doing no activity &#38; it makes me feel horrible being wet through!! Are the sweats likely to last or will they disappear? I really don&#039;t like the excessive sweating at all.
