Default Advice needed

I am 4 months into PCS and 27 years old. My neuro prescribed me notriptyline 25mg for 2 months. It's been 20 days since I have started taking notriptyline and I am experiencing restlessness, increased heartbeat, mild shaking in my body. I went to my PCP today and he told me it's safe to stop taking notryptiline as the dosage is low. I want to continue with it as I feel mentally stable and relaxed after taking it. Also my family has seen mood improvements in me and good sleep after notryptiline. Is it safe to continue after the mentioned side effects? And is it safe to discontinue abruptly if I have to after 20 days ?

Also I have been taking a B12 supplement(Mecobalamin 1.5mg, Alpha Lipoic Acid 100mg, Folic Acid 1.5mg, Pyridoxine HCl 3mg) and cod liver oil capsules since 1 month. But I couldn't take them since 2 days as I was unable to follow up with my doc and ask if I should continue. Is it ok to continue with B12 and cod liver oil capsules more than a month?
