My trial of nortriptyline continues to go well. I increased my dose to 50mg about a week ago, and have tolerated the increased dose very well. I have not had any troubling side effects, which makes me very happy :-). I have noticed that I am craving carbs more than usual, and have probably gained a couple of pounds, but not much more than that (which isn't too bad since before I started nort I really wasn't eating, so having an appetite is a welcome change). And, I have a little bit of dry mouth, but nothing than keeping myself hydrated won't help (which I do anyway - lots of water for me). It appears that 50mg is going to be a therapeutic and effective dose for me, to which I will supplement with a few natural supplements - Enada NADH, L-Tyrosine, L-Glutamine and Acetyl L-Carnitine or DMAE (or both), as well as increased physical activity/exercise.Anyway, that's about it. I seem to be doing alright.
