I went to the clinic today and saw my nurse practitioner. Turns out she had taken quite bit of time to study up on TM; something my former doctor never bothered to do. So we were able to discuss intelligently my symptoms, my meds, and treatment options. What a difference! She upped my hydrocodone from 5mg to 10mg, scheduled me for PT (including hydrotherapy) and she added Amitriptyline HCL. This should help me sleep and also help with depression. Has anyone had any experience with this drug? What can I expect? God bless those who care and take the time to educate themselves about what we face. There are not many of them, but if you find one they are like gold. Rev. Craig Crossman First Baptist Church 615 W.
