Insomnia
"I have had insomnia and chronic pain for 24 years. I&#039;ve seen every specialist imaginable and no one could seem to help me. But I was still taking sleep aids every night, sometimes doubling up on the dosage. At my worst I was taking a handful of pills just to fall asleep and my family worried that someday I would not wake up. I went to a lung specialist and he prescribed Elavil. I have been on it for about 4 months now at 100 mg and I RARELY need to take a sleep aid. I just get sleepy and go to bed, like &quot;normal people&quot;. =) I also noticed a great reduction in my pain levels. So it&#039;s either the Elavil that is helping the pain directly or its the restful sleep. Either way I am thrilled w the medication!"
