>So would Desipramine help with the pain?
Quite possibly. I think it might help.
>I understand that Desipramine doesn't cause the same weight gain as Nortriptyline. Is this true?
It is believed to be true. Desipramine is quite selective as an NRI whereas nortriptyline isn't. Nortriptyline has an antihistamine effect, which may cause weight gain.
