Could it be that Amitriptyline is causing this? I recently introduced Clonazepam into the mix, but the light headedness was there before that.

Edit: Actually, dizziness and light headedness are listed as side effects. Maybe I'll try reducing dose from 20mg to 10mg again, since it's the Clonazepam that is really the key in controlling the burning mouth syndrome (why I take both) http://depression.emedtv.com/amitrip...e-effects.html
