Maybe meds is the wrong approach for your body. I tried them all too, made me a lot worse. Now im all homeopathic. Its not perfect, but is definitely far more helpful than the meds.

No amatriptyline but most NASID make my pain worse. So things they help done people don’t help everyone. I feel like it’s a try this and if it doesn’t work let’s try this until you find what works for you.

I found Amitriptyline useful to some degree in pain management as well as sleep. I quit due to grogginess the morning after taking - it didn’t help with sharpness at work.

I am finding it does help sleep for sure but also groggy in the morning
