Alternatives to steroids for PMR
Hi, I am still awaiting diagnosis for what to me is almost certainly PMR. My GP seems happy to let me take a vast cocktail of other pills but won't prescribe steroids not least because amazingly my CRP and ESR tests came in normal. So I'm on Naproxen and paracetamol (two of each at a time), one amitriptyline

Amitriptyline
Hi all My GP suggested 10mg of Amitriptyline for my neck tension/pain and tension headaches - I took my first dose last night and slept much better but feel pretty dizzy and light headed this morning, annoyingly on top of the cervicogenic dizziness I already have! I’m up for carrying on though - is

Amitriptyline
Hi Saw GP yesterday for my ongoing IBS type symptoms (not officially diagnosed) I have diverticulosis though. He has prescribed me a low dose of the above medication, which I’ve yet to start taking. Has anyone on here taken them for IBS? I would love to hear your thoughts & experiences.

Improvement Woe
Been meaning to post good improvements for while now, just running into uncertainty and other medical issues to sort. I have had several months of good results off Amitriptyline and sleeping well unaided for the most part. I have had several close call medical issues and survived. However this last

Having Private Blood Tests Done. Asking for Peer Review.
I am going to have some private blood tests done. Not worth discussing what is needed with a physician who has no idea what is needed. Note: I did figure out that when a physician says they are going to order some blood work that what they are really doing is checking off boxes that show up on the

Low Dose Ketamine
Has anyone tried treating your depression and anxiety with low dose Ketamine through a telehealth company? I have tried just about every antidepresant there is with only moderate success. I have been wanting to give Ketamine a try but I was uncomfortable with the psychedelic experiences and high cost

Newly diagnosed
Hi, this is all very new to me as only been diagnosed with fibro in the last few months. I originally was told about 3yrs ago that all my symptoms were down to being peri- menopausal and put on hrt patches, then changed to different hrt medicines when these didn't do anything. I then saw a different

CRGP injections side effects
Hello, I’ve been having chronic migraines for the last 20 months. I have tried taking Pizotifen, amitriptyline, and am still taking atenolol and venlafaxine. In June, I had a bi-lateral GON block which didn’t work. In August I was given my first dose of Botox. As Botox is given in two doses, 3 months

Botox Day 1
After 3 years of suffering with Chronic Migraine, and 3 months of waiting for my Botox - I finally had my first appointment today. I definitely underestimated how painful it was going to be, but let’s hope the pain was worth it! Fingers crossed it starts to help over the next couple of weeks, as I’ve

Root cause of autoimmune B12 def
Hello- I was just diagnosed with PA and was prescribed injections (cyanocobalamin unfortunately). This was from a hematology referral for low white blood cells. That turned out to be ok, but the doc noticed my B12 was "low" at 310. I was already supplementing B12 so she just said keep doing that.

Medication Question
Morning, hope you are all as pain free as possible today. I have a question in respect of medication I am still trying to find the best solution for me. I tried amitriptyline but it just didn't work, it didn't touch the pain and left me even more exhausted. Recently I have been on Pregablin up to 175mg

Duloxetine with low dose of tramadol?
Hi all I’m hoping to switch from Amitriptyline (which is no longer working for me) to Duloxetine very soon. I also take cocodamol here and there and it really helps but I have to stop it ideally because of mast cell issues (a whole other story). Tramadol would be a suitable switch but I’ve read it

Concerned Wife
Hi, hope this is OK to post. My husband has had mild RLS for many years but last weekend his symptoms suddenly became extreme and constant, seemingly out of the blue. For context, he is 30, and has taken antidepressants for many years without any increase in symptoms. He has also been taking amipiprazole
