Hi Rachel,
I took Amitriptyline years ago for TMJ pain as well as for headaches and in the begining on my TOS days. I also tried Nortryptaline (can't spell today).
My biggest issue with Amitriptayline was the dry mouth...I ended up with dental problems as my mouth was so dry (common with a lot of the nerve drugs I have been told).
I tried Topomax - I lost weight quick (like close to 15lbs in a month) but the drug did nothing to help so my doc took me off it after a month. I tried Lyrica but gained weight so my neuro put me back on Neurontin which seems to be my best bet (getting the dosage figured out always seems to be the issue!)
Hope this helps?!
