Do all fibromyalgia sufferers also have chronic fatigue syndrome? I have chronic fatigue syndrome, diagnosed as such by a doctor finally a few years ago. I notice that the fatigue is worse when the pain is worse, which makes sense...

teachrtechr I take too many, but I take far fewer now than I did at one point. There was one point in my life (and I am only 28) that I was taking about 15 pills in the morning and around 18 at night. Some were duplicates and triplicates of the same medicine because of...

teachrtechr I personally didn't taper off Effexor. I was on, hmm, let me try and remember, I want to say 350 of Effexor XR two times a day but it may have been 175 two times a day, I can't recall. Anyway, I was recently switched over to 90 milligrams of Cymbalta because...
