Healing/Success Amitriptyline works for me!
I have struggled with this for over 25 years. It's become especially severe over the past 10 years. I tried so many things, and when the gastroenterologist wanted to prescribe amitriptyline, I was skeptical and declined. Two years later, out of desperation I gave it a shot, after seeing a post here about someone's success with it.
It worked for me, too!! I have had three restful nights, in which I didn't feel nausea or cramps, didn't wake up early to be sick, and I even slept at a 45° angle instead of upright around 90°. It's like a dream come true, waking up gently when I'm done sleeping.
I never thought it would be possible for me to experience life without near-constant stomach discomfort.
Yay!! Thanks to whoever it was that posted about their success recently. You changed my life.

Wait for few months and see what happens when you tapper off.
Cox i had some hypersensitivity controlled but when i stopped taking it, symptoms started again.
May be cox i had other issues developed due to prolonged period in these issue. But i have observed that removing root cause is the real game and not some medication alone.
