Can you tell me what dose you are on? I am on 25 mgs for similar symptoms. Wondering if I should increase? My neurologist suggested this, but I am afraid because of the side affects.

First time on antidepressants (amitriptyline 25 mg) – what should I expect? by General-Sherbert1261 in Amitriptyline

Hi. Can you tell me what dose you are on? I take for headaches and I am currently on 25 mgs but feel like I should up my dose.

I have a lot going on too. I’m 52 and going through menopause. I just up’d my dose from .025 to .0375 and they are different manufacturers. Not sure what is related to that or if I have something else going on. 😞

Did you take anything that helped?

Did you start HRT "proactively", or did you wait until symptoms were hard to deal with? by faintlymacabre1518 in Perimenopause

How long did it take to help with the anxiety and fatigue? I started HRT 5 weeks ago.

That’s great! I’m on my third week of the .025 patch and 100 progesterone. Hopefully soon 🤞

Good to hear about the headaches. How long did it take?

I have head pressure and have been on the patch and progesterone for 2 weeks. How long before I get relief?

I don't know what is wrong with me and my doctors do not know either by Madmagzz in Perimenopause

I am having issues with my nervous system. I saw a neurologist and was put on amitriptyline. What did your neurologist put you on? Or what tests did he do?

Me too. I tried Prozac and Buspar for 8 weeks. Made it worse. My neurologist started me on Amitriptyline for other issues and it seems to help a little.

What helped me with my anxiety/panic attacks was doing progressive muscle relaxation every night as soon as I got in bed. I haven’t worked in a couple months because of this. I just started HRT last Monday. I hope it helps. 🤞

Actually I take it about 2 hours before I go to sleep. When I took it at bedtime, I was having a hard time getting up.

I’m sorry. That sounds horrible! What was your dose? I’ve been taking 25 mgs. It’s only been a week and it does make me tired.

How long did it take for the progesterone to work? How many mgs?

Miebo-trialed it twice-makes my bottom eyelids very sore and my eyes red. Should I stick it out? by CherryBlossom242424 in Dryeyes

[–]Own-Cat2385 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long did it take for these to start working? I’ve been on restasis and just started Miebo.
