That sounds good. A little bit more than I could tolerate at the start. But looks good. The NE stuff takes longer to adjust I think than serotonin stuff does. Maybe because NE is intertwined with adrenal and pituitary, dunno. Some of the clinical trial people said the main benefits took months to gradually show up, almost as if body biochemistries were slowly being repaired and reset. Same with side effects, it took a while.
Anyway, I think the biggest cause of failure with savella is caused by too high of a dose or getting to a high dose too fast. So in my opinion you seem to be approaching this the right way.
