Nortriptalyn for prophylaxis.

Hi there. I’ve posted a few times along my journey and you’ll now be pleased to know I am almost off my tramadol, although this last bit is torture so I’m taking it very slow!

My neurologist has prescribed me nortriptalyn 10mg at night to take once off the tramadol but I’ve read a few horror stories? I’m very sensitive to meds, get spaced out very easily and I hate feeling disconnected and drowsy the next day. I can’t even tolerate OTC sleeping tablets as they knock me out the next day! Anyone got any experience? Im also worried about weight gain?
