Savella And Nausea

Okay I quit taking Lyrica about a week and a half ago, I just stopped feeling drunk about 2 days ago. I am on day 3 of Savella Titration pack and I am starting to feel much better, I actually have energy! There are blogs like this one about Savella and some people say there are nasty side effects while your body gets used to this med as well, but I have not felt any yet. The only thing i noticed is that I had a little nausea the first day but none since then. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Today is my third day of Savella- first day at 25 mg x/day. These three days have been hell- extreme nausea, hot/cold flashes and sweats, racing heart, fatigue. It took me five weeks to be weaned off of Lyrica and I'm so disheartened by how I'm feeling now. When did everyone's side effects start to go away?

Hang in there. I had naseau, blurred vision, sweating and fast heart beat in the first two hours after taking a dose. The side effect lasted for about three weeks but my pain was gone. I have been on Savella for 3 months now and all side effects are gone but the ocassionally bout of naseau. It was worth it to be pain free.

Savella has been known to cause some side effects, which the FDA lists as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, back pain, chills, heartburn, sudden sweating, palpitations, and insomnia.

If any of them are severe, you should consult your doctor, you should also consult them if you experience blurred vision, difficulty breathing, sore throat, and unusual tiredness.

Tiffaney, have you consulted your doctor about your side effects?
