I take 25 mg of amitriptyline because of IBS. The IBS gives me loads of stomach pains and almost daily diarrhoea. Since I've been taking this medicine I have less stomach ache and better stools. So this is where I really notice a difference. The stomach pains haven't completely disappeared but they are less severe. Also I haven't had any migraines since taking amitriptyline. Coincidence or not, it's fine by me. To start off with I had some side effects like dry mouth, sleeping a lot and now after a couple of months I'm struggling with weight gain. This is also the reason why I am considering stopping. I don't know what's worse. Stomach pains or getting fatter.
