I don't know about Amitriptyline, but on Tuesday by Pain Mgmt Doctor prescribed Methadone. I've been suffering for almost 4 years, had several blocks, spinal cord stim implanted twice (first one battery moved and wires migrated), 90 Mg Cymbalta, 200 Mg Lyrica, 100 Mg Celebrex, 25 Mg Hydroclorot (blood pressure & swelling), 10 Mg Ambien (@ bedtime), and currently coming off Clonidine. I had been taking between 5 and 6 Vicodin 7.5 Mg, but since the Methadone has been introduced, I am taking only 2 tablets right now. Right now, I believe the Methadone is only 5Mg 12 hours apart, but after a week will go up to 5 Mg every 8 hours.

I am scared and ashamed of the Methadone, but it seems to be working. I feel sick to my stomach, but I was told this would pass. I hope this works.
