View allCan I take melatonin to help me sleep if I'm already prescribed a 25 mg amitriptyline pill daily to reduce my headache frequency? I'm just worried if there's any interaction or issues mixing the two.
Melatonin and amitryptiline has a potential for interaction so it should be used very carefully as they both increase sedation and drowsiness. The medications should not be had unless directed by your treating doctor. If you develop any problem visit the ER at the earliest.

I'm dealing with a burning sensation all over my body and it feels like nerve pain, with pins and needles, and sometimes it feels like a heat wave inside. I've also got nerve pain in my jaw. I've been told I might have Complex Regional Pain Syndrome by one doctor in NZ, and a neurologist mentioned Central Pain Syndrome. I'm really concerned and a bit confused about these diagnoses. Could you explain what they mean and how they differ? Also, what can I do to manage or reduce these symptoms?
Approximately 80% of patients with CRPS type I achieve complete, spontaneous relief of signs and symptoms within 18 months; however, no diagnostic criteria have been shown to predict which patients will fall into this category. Some of the patients whose symptoms do not resolve spontaneously may still be cured by treatment. Of the patients who develop refractory CRPS type I, 50-80% have disability secondary to pain andor a limited range of motion. The main disabilities are limitations in their activities of daily living (ADL).

I've been getting these strange muscle twitches in my bicep on the left arm. They aren't constant, but I've noticed them more when I'm just chilling out. It doesn't hurt or really bother me physically, but each time it happens, I can't help but feel a bit on edge and worried. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned? Just trying to understand what's going on.
That common in many no need to worry as its momentary and causes no pain,once get your Calcium and electrolytes get checked.
