Default Amitryptilne-induced neck spasm

Hello. I'm happy to hear from others who may have found a solution to this:

I'm 7 months post-concussion with post-concussion syndrome from day 1. 3 months into the syndrome, I was prescribed amitriptyline. I started at 10mg once a day for a few days, then 10mg twice a day. The DAY I upped that dosage, I developed a neck spasm that became permanent. I withdrew from amitriptyline months ago. Has ANYONE been in this boat? What works? Benadryl? Anti-Parkinsonian meds? It's apparently not dystonia.

Thanks, much love.
