Hope you find something that works!

How are you feeling now that your off the Amitriptalyne? I went to the doctors and they told me to increase it to 100mg. I'm hoping that I wont need this as time goes on. Are your headaches better? How long have you been off? Did they slowly wean you off?
thanks for your input.
