Hi Shelly I take nortryptaline (No weight gain) But this is for my fibromyalgia pain. For my gynae issues I take codeine, tramadol or naproxen.

Thanks for the reply I also suffer with fibromyalgia but they’ve gave me it for endo , I just hope it works can’t deal with the pain anymore, nothing seems to work. I’m glad there is no weight gain, as my weight is depressing me at the min along with waiting for surgery x

I started amitriptyline which is in the same drug group a few weeks back. I think it might be beginning to work. I’ve not noticed weight gain yet, but not getting as much pain after eating.
