Default Hmmmm

I find it interesting that it has taken this long for this info. to reach the public. Certainly, Pfizer was aware of this but in no hurry for the public to become aware of it, particularly after the huge media campain touting it as an effective Fibro medication. I have been on it along with Gabitril for nerve pain and Fibro and have experienced modest relief. Frankly, I will take anything that is reasonable if it gives me some relief. I hate to read these results in light of the problems many have going off of it. I have had two episodes where my part D provider refused to pay for it and it took 4-6 weeks to get it straighted out in spite of my pain doc agressively advocating for me. Both times, I experienced severe withdrawl the entire time and I only take 75 mg bid.
