Amitryptaline (med) Posted: 11-06-05 08:21am


I was given a prescription of amitriptiline as I had a nerve flare up , pain in the back of my neck and up the side of my head... As well as throat swallowing problems.... I only took one pill and noticed the next day how tired I was even after a good night sleep, I ended up laying down on the couch just before noon and sleeping again for another 2 hours... Does anyone know if people with bipolor are more sensitive to medications than people without it, if this is true why ? Even when they put me on celexa anti depressant a few years ago this caused a huge mania for me .....
