Does Savella Help You To Lose Weight

Updated

I just started savella yesterday and i am curious to know if i can expect some weight loss with this medication. I am also taking celebrex and chantex the fibromyalgia pain has greatly improved since i started taking the celebrex however I still have slight pain throughout my body I am sure that things will get better its just a matter of when and if the extra weight that I have gained has something to do with my pain. Good luck to all of you out there who are sufferiing with this terrible thing called fibromyalgia,
