Question/Comment:
Just that I was getting migraines everyday. And when I first started taking amitriptyline I didn't get a migraine for almost 3 weeks. But now it's still here and there. I might get them everyday for a week or so. And then go 2 weeks without getting them.

Beware of the side effects. I am not doing anything that the side effects will interfere with, but driving and other tasks could be dangerous.

I think it has helped me alot, I also take Naprosine with it. Before, I could not walk up steps very good, and my hands were a lot worse. It has not taken away all the pain but at least it is better.
