Hi Friends,
I have just been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia after years of weird hypersensitive skin and aching pains, tiredness, etc. I have to have a blood test in Jan just to rule out anything else, but Fibro is the suspicion.
I am on 10mg Escitalopram daily for my depression and GAD, and my GP had just prescribed Amitryptiline 25mg for the Fibromyalgia. He assured me that it 'should not' interact with the Escitalopram, but having done a bit of research about it, I am a bit worried about interactions.....I am just not chuffed about the prospect of taking 2 antidepressants either.
Does anyone have any experience with this sort of situation/meds?
Any advice is appreciated. xxxx :flowers:
