I have felt so sorry for everyone who can't sleep as I found Amitrypteline completely knocked me out. HUH !!!!!!!!
I couldn't believe how much sleep I was getting, but Fibro decided to stick it's ugly head in and gave me such bad flushes I have to take a towel to bed with me to mop up my perspiration ( I'm a lady so don't sweat LOL )
I feel as though I have a fever and wake up around four times in the night wet through and usually very cold too.
I can't stand being too hot as heat brings on the flushes and there is nothing anyone can do for me.....my GP just feels sorry for me...
Thanks for my moan ...xxx

I came off HRT because I was starting with the hot flushes anyway ( and had been on it for 10 years ) - so my doctor gave me Clonidine which helped for around 2 weeks before they started again.
I can sometimes get the flush every 10 - 15 mins.
I had some Premarin HRT left so I'm on them again - only started taking them two days ago so can't tell yet whether they work but I'm so desperate...
I would so love to talk to someone who has gone down the Natural route for Fibro as I'm on a cocktail of drugs and don't know what they are doing to my system.
Thank you for replying, I hate being like this and just want to be normal...xxx
