I was given a trial pack of savella from my doctor and then a prescription and I have had financial difficulties and so I am trying to find coupons for the medication. Is there any hope for this?

I was started on a trial pack of Savella and by the time I got to the third week I was having the same side effects as I did on Lycria. I had jerking motions at intervals, sometimes it would be my whole body. Mostly it is different parts of my body. I see my pain management Dr. on tuesday(25th) and I will tell him then that I cannot take this med. My internal med. Dr.was giving me Lortab for my pain. Now he is not giving Lortab anymore because there is to much on the streets!! He gave me some Ultram 100 mg 3 times a day. Well that does not even come near taking away my pain. I am on a strong CNS pain med. but it does nothing for the aches and pains in my joints and bones. I have about 6 discs out of place and 2 in the thoriac area are touching my spinal cord. No surgery can be done in that area, unless its life or death! If my Drs. don't get it together and help my I guess I will go to the street and find what I need! I cannot live like this!!! Thanks for letting me gripe about this. I do thank GOD for what I do have. Gentle Hugs to all. Peggy P.S. Diane, try asking your MD for more trial packs until you can get your RX. filled. Good luck, Peggy

FYI for HURSTNURS1...I was put in Kadian ER (which lasts 24 hrs)!! It's a Morphine Sulphate that has a $50 coupon that lasts ALL YEAR until Dec. 30, 2009!!! There are many different milligram amounts to go by and I don't much side effects except the routine side effects (i.e. colon getting rid of food and a little tired and draggy sometimes)...which is common from pain meds! But, I finaly got some relief from Fibro, Chronic Fatigue, Arthritis, Shoulders, elbows, hands, and knee pain and surgeries. So, investigate and see....when you can't do daily simple functions anymore because of all the pain, it's time to stop, drop, and roll ya know????!! Good Luck to you
