I had decent pain relief from nortriptyline but it makes me vasodilate like mad when it is warm which makes things worse. This probably doesn't bother most people. I ended up going down on it and doing about the same.

Don't cha just luv being special?
Hahah I feel so very special lately! They stopped my metoprolol I was taking with the losartan because my pulse was 30. BUT lol also cause they said I have rynauds and it makes it worse. Said to try amlodipine instead but they just upped the ace. I have about 40 lbs I could lose and I've been losing about 2 lbs a week and am hoping getting to my goal pre kid weight will make it so I don't need these meds. But dr doubts it.
Right now I have nothing that gives me pain relief. The gabapentin doesn't work so well anymore. I'm just gonna bet the bank on these injections! Lol this sucks! Of all the things i could have happen with my hand from repetative motion (if that's what this truly is) why did it have to be this? OH YEAH! It's cause I'm super special hahahahah
