Guest guest Posted September 2, 2007 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 Carol, Your urogyn suspected your bladder to be a problem even before you ever went on the Elavil which is why he mentioned about doing the installations which is one of the treatments used for IC. Also, IC has just as many atypical symptoms as it does typical symptoms. Not everyone with IC has an urgency problem.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 Hi group members, I need help and support from the women who are taking elavil. I started 10 mg two days ago and increased it to 20mg today. How quickly should I go up on this drug to reduce my pain? How quickly should it work? I am completely depressed. I also take 1200mg of neurontin and that has done nothing. Pain meds do nothing. Is elavil still being prescribed today? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 Carolyn, How much ativan do you take? I have zanax and I find that it helps with stress. --msb elavil I take 20mg of elavil and a lorazepam when I flare up, it seems to be working well. The lorazepam seems to work the best.

Guest guest Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 Thanks, Millie. The 20mg I took last night is helping a bit. How long have you been at 25mg? Did you experience increased appetite? --msb elavil Hi group members,I need help and support from the women who are taking elavil. I started 10 mg two days ago and increased it to 20mg today.
