I have gbs resulting from haven taken the flu shot. I have been on Gabapenten whichn causedleg swelling the was put on cymbalta but was sick with it. I am now on 50 mg of Lyrica but it is not controlling the pain. Would Asmtriptyline or nortriptyline be a better answer for me. I have had this since Jan.
Hello, Amitryptiline and nortryptiline work in different ways than the anti=epileptics gabapentin and lyrica and could be tried along with them. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr Matt Wachsman, Addiction Medicine Specialist
