Migraine Medication
Hi - I suffer from migraine. At the moment I get them every other week. I have tried amitriptyline, nortriptyline, topirimate etc but can't tolerate these drugs. I now use rizatriptan when the migraine starts and it does stop it though it often comes back and I have to take a second and sometimes a third

A Small Victory
The foolish GP I saw at the beginning of November completely ignored me when I told him the Nortriptyline was causing the shaking, palpitations, headache. And insisted on booking me in for a whole raft of unecessary blood tests including thyroid , again. Even though everything has been checked repeatedly

Advice Please
I said in an earlier post this week all my adverse side effects from taking the Nortriptyline have ceased thankfully, however the nice but dim Registrar I saw last week has insisted on putting a ton of, in my humble opinion, unnecessary blood tests on the system including thyroid. I'm not sure whether

Who Knew I'd Be Right?
So following on from my waste of time GP appointment on Tuesday, I immediately stopped the Nortriptyline I was taking for migraine prevention as it wasn't helping and I was getting unpleasant side effects, daily headaches, sweating, shakiness and racing heart. All well known side effects from tricyclic

Nortriptyline and Thyroid Meds
Hi I was recently diagnosed as having chronic vestibular migraine by the ENT and Neurologist as a consequence I'm now taking a small dose of Nortriptyline as a migraine preventative. It's a tricyclic antidepressant but at low doses has shown success with other conditions like migraine and chronic

Peripheral Neuropathy-like symptoms (tingling) in feet and lower legs and Nortriptyline dilema
I was prescribed Nortriptyline almost 30 years ago for sleep maintenance. In 2019 I stopped taking after reducing it to 10 mg. In a matter a few days I developed tingling in my hands and feet. My primary care physician put me back on it and the symptoms cleared up. Then in 2021 I meticulously titrated

Ndph (new persistent daily headaches) /chronic migraine
Anyone had a diagnosis of this? My daughter is 13. She has been suffering with continuous migraines for a year next month and she has just been diagnosed as either ndph or chronic migraines. We've been told that whatever label it's given treatment will be the same. She's now on Nortriptyline 3 weeks
