Hi Erin. Sorry about all your problems. I feel like a walking pharmacy myself.

I actually take 50mg of elavil at night. It puts me out in about 45 minutes. It has also helped with the burning pain that I get in my neck.

I started out at 25mg but it didn't help the pain so after about 4 weeks he upped it. It has really been a godsend for me. Luckily I don't have the groggy side effects in the morning.
