Guest guest Posted July 21, 2006 Report Posted July 21, 2006 Hello everyone! I've been diagnosed about a year ago with Fibro. and I am on Effexor for the sensitivity to my skin. It use to be if someone would just tap my skin I would instantly be in pain. The Doc put me on 75 mg. of Effexor. Then I started with more problems in other areas of the body, so the Doc upped my meds to 150 mg. Now my main problem is that I can barely use my hands to type, eat, and pick things up. It's like I have arthritis now, but I don't. So the Doc added 32 mgs more. My problem is - is that the medicine is so expensive ... $200 for both capsules - the 32mg and 150mg. Is there any other medicine out there that is cheaper and will take away the pain and pressure? Appreciate any help out there. I'm just shocked how bad it has affected my arms and hands now.
