I am now on nortriptyline and not the elavil (amitriptyline)
I have been depressed ticked off in grief and all around p/o'd at all life!!! No laughing and no fun just p/o'd.....so now I have had my nortriptyline increase a huge amount....it is a cleaner ssri. elavil breaks down to a couple of things...one of them nortriptylne....so the elavil has too much stuff in it and the other 'stuff' causes the side effects....

I still belive Alison and want to get my swollen hand on some namemda...should we do a drug exchange at the meeting???? lol.....ok for those who take things literally that was a JOKE!!!!! I am laughing and smiling on this side of my computer...... I am a nurse after all !!!!!!!!

my doc won't add more meds to the mix for the interaction issue.....on so many as it is now....

love and hugs,
Victoria
