Best mix of meds to treat migraine (UK)
Hi All. I read a post a few days ago about the best meds 'cocktail' to get migraine relief - I have read of people going to A+E where they seem to give some intravenous infusion and can we match this. The answers to the other question were mostly from USA I think with drug names I did not recognise

AMITRIPTYLINE
I have been taking Amitriptyline for about 8 years now. I was given this drug to alleviate the pain neuralgia was causing. How do I wean myself off this drug?

Dry mouth caused by meds
Hi just thought I would share this tip. I have been given amitriptyline to take on top of my normal heart meds while they work out what's going on in my brain, either TIAs or hemiplegic migraines. Anyway they give me the most horrendous dry mouth and my GP nurse suggested I try Biotene products, you

The worse it got, the worse my anxiety was getting. I was eventually having bad days most days. When I first found

Hello again everyone :-)
So today I've been to see a gynaecologist, they did an external and internal exam, then didn't find anything wrong. I did a urine sample and also they took swabs from my cervix to test for infection, they didn't find anything with these either. They did have a look at some recent ultrasound results,

Another medication and first virus of the year
Some of you may remember that when I saw the rheumatologist he confirmed that I had fibromyalgia as well as PMR. When I saw my GP on the 28th he'd not heard from the rheumy so couldn't prescribe any of the medication he'd suggested. Then last Monday, the 3rd, my daughter said I'd just had a phone call

Hi everyone I’ve just been diagnosed after a number of ruling out tests and a good 3 years of constant pain. I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid a good 15 years ago so have always had some form of pain or brain fog as well as the fatigue. Anyway after a couple years of visits to the doctors

I was prescribed with a low dose of amitriptyline which does not really help except gives me a good night's sleep. Also if anybody uses

Digestion and absorption - digestive enzymes, betaine hcl, probiotics
As hypothyroid for many years, what would be advisable products to use to improve digestion and absorption. Especially important as I'm considering iron supplements. I'm skinny, so don't think I convert most of the food into muscle. Also have dirty/green tongue that I take ages to clean in the evening

Does anyone have a really dry nose, mouth & sinus pain? Mine is so bad at the moment, I’ve even had to book a drs appointment! I’ll gladly cancel the appointment if anyone has any tips (other than steam). I’ve run out of ideas. I haven’t been diagnosed with Sjogren’s Syndrome but think the problem has

amitriptyline
Been told to increase my dosage to from 30mg 40mg due to the pain not easing., but on UK guidelines it says only go up to 30mg for IBS pain. Is anyone taking higher than 30mg (for IBS-unrelated to anxiety/depression) if so does it work/do you recommend?

Fibro and CBD
Hi I've been recently diagnosed with Fibro after years of going back and forth to Drs and consultants and have been put on amitriptyline to try and ease the pain. I'm careful how much I read online because it can be so misleading but CBD oil keeps cropping up in my reasearch in either capsules, drops

In severe pain most days. Burning shoulders and middle back.
Hi really really struggling with pain. I have been to out of hours twice this week. I keep getting diazapan. So stuck on amitriptyline, Gabapentin, tramadol. The most effective is amitriptyline. Worried this burning will never end.
