ive been experiencing chronic tension headaches since beginning of april ive been to gp so many times and ive asked for a headache specialist referral but my appointment is 3rd dec. ive been put on amitripyline 10mg increased to 20mg everynight , ive been to chiropractor and hes realigned my neck but it hasnt fixed my head . i feel really spacy all the time i still get headaches although it does seem to less intense. it feels like the pain is neck head and right arm i dont know what else to try . i hate feeling like this im a hairdresser and when i feel spacy i have to focus so much when im at work.
im seeing a specialist who does nis treatment in the hope he may be able to help but im not sure what else to do as it all costs a fortune.
has anyone else been on amitripyline ? can i just stop the tabs or so i have to ween myself? i dont want to be on it for long
