Pam,
After trial and error (still working on it) found for the most part working doses about 2 hrs. apart seems to work best. If I am unable to take the 3rd as planned and have to tak it a little later, that often takes it away from add onto the 2nd on and does not quite work as well. Glad the pain has gone done a bit and do hear some gurgle sounds.

I mentioned having taking Amitriptyline for several years (the brand name here is Elavil) I use the Amitriptyline (generic ) myself. I have up until last you taken 25mg's before going to bed. Last year I asked my Primary/doctor/endocrinoligst if okay to cut in 1/2. So for the past year have been taking 1/2 of a 25 mg Amitriptyline before going to bed, It is a Tricyeti(sp.?) antidepressant used for mental/mood disorders. Helps relieve anxiety and sleep better.

Thanks for keeping us in the "loop".

Gerry
