Sleep Apnoea!
Some will remember that I have posted a few times about my trouble with sleeping, especially withdrawing from Amitriptyline when that wasn’t helping the sleep any more. Well, it appears that I have moderate sleep apnoea. My sleep is disturbed over 19 times per hour! This has led to me having to get

Is Living a Normal Life Again Possible?
Hi, I'm new here, hoping for help from the forum. My diarrhoea started on 13th June, 2022 and has continued daily to date (11th August, 2022). After a range of tests, which were all normal, my GP has diagnosed IBS-diarrhoea. I've started a low dose of amitriptyline and I also use loperamide occasionally

medication that makes RLS worse
I need to know which medications , especially pain relief and sleeping meds, make RLS worse. Some years ago I was given pain relief and sleeping meds after rotator cuff surgery and spent the whole night walking around my room. I have another procedure coming up and want to avoid a repeat. I know

Afraid to get better? Do you self sabotage yourself
Is anyone else here afraid to get better? That for some reason you're holding on to your depression because it's more comfortable to be miserable than to improve? Is it the unknown, the fear of responsibility? I know I am. My wife says I always self sabotage myself. Once something starts to work I freak

pressure on my bladder
my story has always been diahorrea and very long floppy bowel apparently so long the tubes doing colonoscopy only managed to go half way so was advised not too have another colonoscopy as so many loops they could perforate bowel. But the last year has changed I know have chronic constipation and 2 weeks

10mg Amitriptyline
Since I was refused zopiclone and prescribed 10mg Amitriptyline I have been sleeping like a baby. I am so so so glad that I didn’t take zopiclone as it is very addictive and does affect one’s health. Amitriptyline is, I am told, non addictive and has no side effects. It works for me.

I just can't take it anymore. I want to live but it's too damn painful.
I've tried everything, hospitalization, ECT, TMS, meds, ketamine. Nothing works. In fact, I just started zoloft 4 days ago and everyday i feel worse than the day before. I know it takes time but with everyday getting worse what do I do? I've been on 20 meds, I know the drill. What do I do while I'm

Wrong diagnosis of AF?
My wife has been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation. The diagnosis was made from pulse-rate readings and one ECG taken when she had to undergo two major emergency operations to clear a blocked bowel/GI tract. We are very concerned that the diagnosis is wrong and that having to take Apixaban is a dangerous

New medication - 10mg Amitriptyline
Bad news. For one week I was taking 3.75mg Zopiclone and I had wonder sleep each night. When I didn’t take one it was hell at night and the next day. My doctor will now not prescribe me this medication anymore. Instead I have to take 10mg Amitriptyline from tonight and I am very concerned and angry

Should I stay on spravato? (Ketamine)
Don't know what to do, I want to stay on ketamine but I can't stand the sleep deprivation and insomnia. I was up for 4 days last week. I'm afraid ketamine has fucked up my brain chemistry for good. I've tried trazodone, benadryl, vistaril, melatonin, valerian. Nothing works. I've had 6 sessions. My

Flare ups, COVID & medication changes
Mostly just a rant for me to get stuff off my chest - feel free to skip haha. A few weeks ago, I came down with COVID, for the second time this year. This time round was worse I found, I was out of breath and exhausted for longer, stopped all my hobbies, and completely lost my appetite. It's been a few
