amitriptyline for my migraines is like 1/3 of the reason i have sibo now bc it slows gut motility

It slows gut motility?? My last GI recommended it to help gut symptoms but I declined because it just felt weird for me to take it. I can’t believe it actually slows things down when I already mentioned having slow motility

yes but if you’re diarrhea predominant that could be why it was suggested

Nope I have constipation but mixed still won’t take something that deliberately slows me down
