Terrible Amitriptyline Experience!
Hi All, I've recently been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and was given Amitriptyline 10mg by my GP a couple of weeks ago. I have 2 children under 2 and I'm recently single so was advised not to take them until someone could stay overnight with me. So, I arranged for help last night and tonight and popped

Tinnitus/ringing in ears
Hello everyone. I am coming off Amitriptyline. It gave me a few side effects that I didn't like- ringing in ears, difficulty urinating, weight gain and brain fog. Has anyone else had tinnitus because of their med? Does it get better? I've been switched to Duloxetine and for the first time I feel like

Pain & Problems Sleeping
Hi Everyone, I was diagnosed a month ago. I have an appointment to see a neurologist who specializes in MS next month. In the meantime, the neurologist who diagnosed me, prescribed Amitriptyline to help with my symptoms. I suffer from numbness/tingling/burning sensation in my hands/feet & arms/legs

What are your symptoms? Had endometriosis 20 years, only diagnosed last summer!
I first started getting endometriosis pains when I was pregnant at 21 (20 years ago!!) ultra sound picked up a cyst, so they presumed it was that causing the pain. It was only when I was being sterilised last summer that they found the endometriosis, and removed the dermoid cyst. I've been to A & E twice

Vitamin supplements
Hi everybody, I have had a suggestion that I may need a supplement of vitamin D and magnesium. This was from a friend, but I wondered if I should see a GP before I start taking anything else. I take 20mg of amitriptyline so I don't want anything to react with this. Any advice would be appreciated.

Medication
Hi all, Thought I'd post about medication and see what advice you can give me. Basically dihydrocodeine now gives me migraines so I can no longer take it I've been put on sumitriptan for the migraines but it doesn't help if I get the migraine from dihydrocodeine. I saw a rheumatologist who suggested

I have begun to feel more groggy and tired in the mornings. 8 days ago I decided to try 40mg, not quite as groggy but not sleeping has well, can feel my neck pain slightly worse. I also feel a little down.

Amitriptyline
Guys. Does anybody have any evaluation/views on this drug in terms of effect on brain? My story goes way back maybe 10 years and at the time concerned lots of chronic pain (back, knees). The docs were about to give up when I told them I'd read about the ability of an old anti-depressant to alleviate

Rheumy keeps saying everything is due to fibromyligia not my RA & I don't think I even have fibromyligia
Been diagnosed with RA just over a year but I had symptoms for at least 2 years previously. 4 years ago had diagnosis of underactive thyroid and docs made me believe all symptoms were due to that. The RA is everywhere, no joint has been missed!!! I'm on leflunomide (off MTX as awful side effects). My

It didn't work 😭
For those who remember that I was hoping that my worsened condition due to amitriptyline would reflect in my latest round of blood results...it didn't! ANA was back down at 1:80 and zero zip zilch extractable antibodies of any kind. Something very interesting though...my ESR has stayed consistently

Should I wait longer?
Hello everyone, I've been on my Amitriptyline for 4 weeks now and I don't feel like the depression is lifting at all. It has helped my anxiety so much but depression - no! Should I give it more time? I'm up to 50mg now. I know therapeutic dose is 75-100mg so not there yet but thought I'd start to feel

Infusion for Raynaud's and Erythromelalgia?
Saw a vascular specialist for the first time yesterday. She confirmed that I have both of these conditions and calls is vessel wall instability since I have a combination of the two. She is looking into the possibility of an infusion of either lidocaine or ketamine. Has anyone else had success with either
