"I just started this medication so I have no idea how it will work on a long-term basis but for now it’s completely zeroed out my back pain which was debilitating and often had me flat on my back in bed sometimes as early as noon! Strangely, it’s also helps with my depression and anxiety in a pretty considerable way. I sure hope it keeps working. My issue with it is that I already struggle with lightheadedness from Dysautonomia-POTS, and it doesn’t help in that respect one bit in fact it worsens it a little bit. I’m hoping that as I get used to the medicine this might let up but it is not going to sway me to stop taking it. Also it does give me the munchies a little bit so will have to keep up with intermittent fasting to ward that off because I do not want to gain weight. But all in all I am very pleased with it."
