Have not been on mumsnet for what seems like years, but i know ill get the ans i need on here and so am hoping you can help again.
I have been on prozac/Fluoxetine on and off for years for recurring depression and i also suffer with migraines that have worsened over the last few months.
Saw a new doc and he has taken me off the fluoxetine as does not think im depressed but over anxious which i agree with and had pescribed me the amitriptyline for my migraines along with imigran.
My concerns are however that this is a ad and therefore just using them for migraines means they are not in my system for that long as ive to take 10mg at night when suffering and stop when headache gone. I can also take some in day if migraine persists.
Ive taken them the last three nights and they totally knock me out. Ive always been an early riser but have slept in till eight the past two mornings and still feel tired in day so theres no way i could take in day time.
And is it ok to use them on and off, it just doesnt seem right somehow.
