For Fibromyalgia "Having been diagnosed with fibrositis in 1987, inflammation of white fibrous connective tissue, and treated for years with Elavil, Effexor, and Neurontin. I tried Lyrica, but it gave me migraines and blurred vision. This seems to aid in overall tenderness, but pain surges still peak at 6-7. I have experienced severe nausea, mood swings (was told to stop Elavil, Wellbutrin), and blood pressure increase. I also have had trouble sleeping. But it has helped with fatigue, unless I have done something physical, then pain surges increase, along with depression. Overall, I think it is a promising medication."

Milnacipran for Fibromyalgia "Dizziness and insomnia for the first few days of the titration pack. Then more side effects as I jumped to 50 mg. No sleep. But no pain either. Haven't felt this normal in years."
