Default Savella has been a lifesaver for my RSD

I've been suffering with RSD in my left leg for about 3 months. After trying all different combinations of medicine I talked to my Doctor about Lyrica. I told him that we had to try something different because my pain was at a 7 when it was at 10 in the beginning. We talked for awhile and he recommended Savella along with the Gabapentin I was taking. He told me Savella was like Lyrica on steroids. I told him I'd try anything. It's been about 5 weeks and my pain is about a 1 or 2. I'm currently taking 50mg at night and 75 to 100mg in the morning along with 600mg of Gabapentin 3 times per day. I can actually enjoy life now, since I can sleep and do most normal things. Right now I'm back in the gym and trying to re-build the muscles in my leg, as they wasted away. I just wanted to let everyone know that I've been able to find relief and maybe someone else can.
