Sleep issues on lowest dose?

I’m about a week and a half into taking 10mg nortriptyline for chronic nerve pain. I take it at night as instructed, but it seems to be causing horrific sleep issues. I take it a few hours before bed, and I’m wired. Heart racing, thoughts spiraling, full body chills. When I finally fall asleep after hours of laying there, I only get a few hours in before waking up again.

Should I take this medication in the morning instead? I emailed my doctor but she’s isn’t replying. I feel so horrible.
