Default Savella

Hi everyone, I believe it was February when I watched a video on an RSD awareness site. There was a Dr. (Copra??) giving a presentation where he offered advice by color coding- red, yellow, and green. Red meaning avoid Yellow, worth a shot. Green was go for it. It was either yellow or green when he mentioned the medicines Savella and Tizanidine. My General Physician said it was worth a shot and prescribed them to me, but slowly took me off Zoloft because Savella is in the same family. I've been on the two for several months. I began having severe pain in my eyes (red and swollen, and pain in my eye sockets) maybe two months ago and recently read that in some cases Savella can cause severe eye pain. Has anyone ever had any experience trying Savella? I know in my town it has to be special ordered for me, and after a recent hospital stay my husband had to bring it in because the hospital didn't carry it! I am interested in knowing if anyone here has tried it, and if so what were the benefits/side effects you had? Thanks.<br />
