Hi Sophia,

I'm still taking the Amitriptyline, but it doesn't seem to be helping all that much. It felt like it was working for the first 2 weeks, but now I'm not so sure. I get more fluctuations in pain level than I did before (some days very little pain, and the next, the pain is high!), and I get more scalp pain and sensitivity. It seems to be stirring up the nerve endings, rather than dulling the pain. I go back again to my Neurologist on Wednesday, so I will discuss this with him. Not sure if he will do a nerve block this time, I don't want to get my hopes up too much this time! lol
