Gunny, I am so sorry.I can't believe that it was just the other day that
you told me that the treatment was what was hitting him so hard...
My thoughts and prayers are with you...
Gunny, if you need anything...you know where I am and how to get in touch of me.
I am so sorry Gunny. 58 is still on the young side, to me. I will be praying
for you and your family during this time.

Hi all,
I am switching to amitryteline (sp?) from neurontin. I stopped the neurontin
and started all at once (doctor's rec) and went nuts...this is when one can
experience suicidal thoughts (really). I decided to wane the dose of neurontin

I can't tell you how sorry I am.The sorry word just doesn't seem strong

give him up. I am so sorry.

Hi Jill,
I took it years ago for depression and OMG, it was awful!
The best way I can describe it is that I felt stoned. It was called Elavil
then. In those days, they gave it to people in nursing homes to keep them
quiet. But everyone reacts differently, so try it and let us know what

I take a very small dose of Amytriptiline for my bladder. It's way
overactive, so I take 4 mg. Detrol LA at night, and 25 mg of the other
in the morning... They are planning on doing botox on my bladder to calm
it down.

Regina,
OMG.I didn't realize that Amytriptilene was actually Elavil.
I too was put on that for a short while back in the 70's for depression.
I too felt 'right out of it' or 'stoned'.
I couldn't take it then and guess I will just stick with the Neurontin.
Heather in Calgary
I take Elavil 25 mgs each night and I take Lyrica 150mgs 3x daily. The Elavil
was prescribed for me for bladder control. I also take Ditropan XL 20mgs at
night. The Ditropan and the Elavil keep me dry all night.

This interchange is not making me feel too sanguine. I will start with a very
sparing dose and see how it goes. I must also be a little depressed having
just been diagnosed with TM (or something like it)so maybe it will help that
issue.

you have to suck on some hard candy for the dry mouth, drinking water or other
liquid only makes you have to pee more

Jill...it is very common to go thru depression with TM. It hit me one
year after TM hit me and I had to go on Paxil for about six
months...since then (11 years) I have not suffered from depression and

Hi Gang ! ,
Has anyone been keeping count of the number of different spelling of that drug,
you now the one in the subject line??
I count at least half a dozen.
I hate it when you can't even know the spelling of one of your meds. You need
to be spending more time reading your medicine
I was on Amitriptyline for one week when I was being medicated. I was switched
to Nortriptyline and still take 50 mg in the morning and 100 mg at bed.
I take Phenobarbital 15 mg in AM and 45 mg at bed instead of Neurontin, and
Dextromethorphan twice a day, SATIVEX twice a day, and VIT D.
I also had horrible blurred vision. I went off of it because of that, but
my vision had changed so much my eye doctor couldn't believe it. And the
dry mouth was miserable. Rather deal with the bladder problems than
Ditropan.

Do you personally know that Botox is useful this way? I would expect Botox to
weaken bladder spasms but not make them less frequent.

Nope, the candy didn't work either...the water makes you pee more..but
as someone dealing with paralysis..that's probably a good thing.

Botox is a paralytic,,will literally paralyze the bladder muscle..means
I won't be able to pee without a catheter...but it's not like that's any
different than now...just won't be incontinent all the time.

Laura, do you worry about the bladder stretching or would you set an alarm
to get up during the nite to cath?I am assuming that
you don't have enough feeling in the bladder to know when to go or to wake
you up from sleep.

2-300? I doubt it...2-3000 would be more like it. Having said that, it
would be awesome for people with mobitilty problems, but I also see it
as another reason for people (without issues) to not walk and loose
another form of exercise. I'm always asked why I don't use a power
chair...umm...cuz
I cath 5 times a day. every 4 hours during the day, and I can stretch
it to 6 at night. I'm still constantly incontinent, but going more
often has become a quality of life issue. My bladder constantly
over-reacts no matter what I do..I'd have to do it every 2 hours to
stay dry. The botox will
