This other famous Neurologist wants me to first go up on Amitryptyline to 50 mg (I was taking 10 mg with no relief) before do the IVF. So I backed out. 50 mg I won't be able to handle. Even with 10 mg I was fatigued so bad. I never had sleep issue when they put me on this but helped my stomach so kept taking it.

My dull headaches still there but I don't take any painkillers no tylenol, no ibuprofen. Mine is like a pressure feeling or a bowling ball in head. I know it is coming from my dizziness bcuz a bit more Xanax relieves lot of symptoms temporarily. Even this afternoon I did some blood work in hospital (not sure why my doc wants to do bcuz it will show nothing) While I was sitting in the closed room waiting for some one to come draw my blood my head pressure built up, felt dizzy, nauseous and wanted to lie down or get out. After my mTBI I also became claustrophobic.

But lying down is not an option bcuz they take me to ER downstairs and they don't take a chance knowing my history. CT scan, Blood work, Morphin etc., though Morphin felt good last time but I am not going down that road I want them to draw the blood so I can get out. Also I have to drive back (only few miles). So sitting there thinking should I take Zofran or Xanax and took a .125 mg of Xanax. I carry anywhere I go. Yes relieved my symptoms and came home safe Driving gets lot easier when I take Xanax.

I am thinking about getting this sublingual Mg from Amazon:

Also thinking about getting about some CDP Choline since I do have cognitive and vision issues. I have an appointment with Neuro-Opthamalogist (doubt he is going to find anything but my Neurologist wants me to try).

So the search continues. Now I am not rushing for anything since there is no guarantee for anything we try. But I will keep trying.

Cheers!
