I was getting from bad to worse this year. I went to Urgent care because I was barely able to walk from pain and spasms in my legs and back. They direct me to a new GP who treats chronic pain. She confirmed again that it’s fibromyalgia. I keep hoping that one fine day, I will get a some, less confusing dx with something treatable.
She suggested that I try amitriptyline 10mg. I ended up having paradoxical reaction to it. It keeps me awake, alert and motivated while reducing my pain. Pain went from 9/10 to maybe 6/10, which feels amazing. I’m still hurting everywhere, but at least I can ignore it and manage to distract myself.
Did anyone try amitriptyline? How did it do for you?\
