Looks like you may have found the med you were thinking of; I'll add LYRICA also. as this is relatively new in the treatment of Fibro. I was given it for my Neuopathic Pain, this med has many uses and has been quite effective for me. GOOD LUCK and Gentle Hugs.... <3

Forget the Savella. It's a SNRI like Cymbalta; which I would bet you probably have already tried. Go with the Lyrica. It's working for me and I have had chronic pain since 1997.
