I have been taking citalopram 20mg for a little over a month following a spell of anxiety and depression bought on by stress. I have been starting to feel better, like I was functioning again although the first couple of weeks were awful!
Yesterday I saw my GP about ongoing shoulder pain for which I have already seen a physio and had an MRI scan. He has now referred me for more physio and given me amitryptiline 10mg to help relieve muscle tension.
The pharmacist said I should take it 2 hours before bed and warned that I may feel drowsy the following day but this should improve.
Today I feel awful. I feel dopey, depressed really anxious.I'm wondering if I should carry on or just put up with the pain and hope the physio can helpmeet more this time. Has anyone else taken these together?
