Running is pretty much the same as cross-training ~15-20 mins before flare up.

When I was prescribed this Amitriptylene I as told to increase activity. I'm not sure if this was so that activity would 'reset' the sympathetic nervous system response; so that when I stop taking it, the nerves will have remembered the correct function?

What were your experiences like with this drug? I am very interested to hear as I will stop taking it this week.
