However they have asked me to take amitriptyline at night but I am

Looking for a Daily Mail article
There was a very interesting article in the Daily Mail late last year or early this year about a young woman who had stopped taking amitriptyline for nerve pain following years of suffering with endometriosis. She was taking a herbal type supplement that appeared to work wonders. I am trying to trace

Peripheral Neuropathy Pain.
I'm new here. For 3 weeks I have suffered from numbness in my left foot but despite being numb the electric type shocks that it manages to give have kept me awake at night. Nothing eases the pain and I'm on amitriptyline to aid sleep but it doesn't appear to work. I have an appointment to see a neurologist

Very little information on discharge from hospital.
I was told very little about what to expect after my operation for subdural heamatoma. I was only told to take paracetamol for two weeks. No follow up appointment was thought necessary.I went to see GP several times as I was still suffering from awful pains in the head and I asked to see a consultant

Bad side effects to all medication
I was officially diagnosed with Fibromyalgia 4 months ago. I have so far tried Amitriptyline, Bepanthen, and recently Cymbalta, all of which gave me awful side effects.

Unknown diagnosis
