Crap. Ooops I tried to paste a site about nortriptyline but messed up somehow. Anyway if you google this there is a bunch of info about dizziness and migraines etc. I didn't read much of it I'm ashamed to say.

However, Nortriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant related to amitriptyline (Elavil). I do know that initially these tricyclics can make you really drowsy, dizzy, constipated, urinary retetive and some other stuff I can't remember. Some of this passes pretty quickly. On a brighter note, they are relatively good pain managers and work on serotonin and norepinephrine levels.

At any rate, as I know you know, you should talk with your physician about this.

I hope that you are feeling better and again I'm so sorry about what's happened lately in your area.
