    Have the doctors prescribed you with amitriptyline? All I can say is give it time to start working, I was on and off it last year as I wasn’t seeing much improvement. I’ve been on it for 8 weeks or so again this time round and because I’ve stuck at it, it’s defienlty helped a lot. I too suffer from fibromyalgia, my pain is mainly in my chest, back, neck, pins and needles, IBS. 

    Hope you manage to find the best treatment as I know it’s different for everyone x
