[|Human|] Hi, I have had fibromyalgia for 15+ years and it is getting progressively worse. I am on Nabilone .10mg per day and Lyrica 200mg. I am having severe mood swings and am thinking of asking my doc to put me back on effexor . Effexor worked very well for me at one time and then stopped being effective. I ve been on Cybalta which was not good for me at all. No pain relief whatsoever. What are your thoughts. Linda
