Amitriptyline withdrawl update
I thought i would update those interested in my recent post on how i suceeded in coming off amitrptyline. It is now 5 and half weeks without any and feeling much better.

UCTD or Fibromyalgia?
Sorry for the long post, For the last 3 yrs I have struggled with flares of intense pain and fatigue. The last started in Oct 2013, Dr referred to rheumy who I saw in April 2014 who diagnosed UCTD due to inflamed joints, intense fatigue and numerous ulcers in mouth, nose, hair, hands and feet. The pain

Support after VM
Hi, I was diagnosed with VM just over four weeks ago and spent a week in hospital. Since then I have had on-going problems with headaches which vary from a background headache on some days to disabling headaches where I find even walking to the toilet difficult. My balance and coordination is not great

Pain meds alternative?
Am still trying to get pain meds sorted with GP. Am now taking dihydrocodeine 4x daily (2 tabs each time). Plus amitriptyline at night - just started taking. New tabs seem to help but on highest dosage. Whilst picking up tabs from chemist noticed Tens machines. Has anyone used this? Does it help? I have

Is this migraine or cluster headaches?
This is my first posting here. I have found this site because I am becoming rather frightened about what is happening to me. I have always been a 'headachy' person, from childhood. In adult life this worsened. I have had a "headache" now for approx. 7wks still on going. My vision is off blurry, sometimes

Amitriptyline
Hi all, I'm in the process of being diagnosed and started on this med tonight. Just wondered what others experience of it were like. I know it was originally an anti depressant med but found to have other benefits. The GP said he was giving it to me to help with 'my perception of pain'. Has anyone else

Amitriptyline and taste disturbance
Hi, I've been taking 10mg Amitriptyline/day for the past 10 days. This was prescribed by a pain consultant for nerve & bladder pain from stage IV endo. So far, it's helped with the pain, but I'm finding that most foods now taste very bitter. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? I can't find
