Has anyone ever used a low dose of an antidepressant for nerve pain ( in this case Amitriptyline ) & then had the dose increased (X3) to handle depression? Or were you prescribed an additional antidepressant?
Just curious. Diagnosed MS 3/11. Take copaxone & Elavil (amytrittyline) 50mg at night for pain & buzzing feeling. Recently became depressed (personally think it's medication side effect but they say MS progression....whatever ) Currently Ok with tripling Elavil dose, but wondering what others have done & if it worked)
Thank you
