Hi shelleys bling and welcome. I have just gone up from 15mg to 20mg endep a couple of weeks ago and am just starting to feel some pain relief although i still have the dry mouth and constipation is always a problem with this drug for me, but i hope that will ease in another few weeks. I'm also conc...

Thanks Catherine, im now just a week on my new dose of 20mg endep, i think its starting to take the edge off, hope i don't end up putting on too much weight as that will only cause more pressure on my pelvis.

Hi everyone,
decided to cut a 10mg and 25mg amitrip in half
and increase from 15mg to 17.5mg. Its now day 2 at that dose and the pain relief has been good, but now of course the dry eyes and mouth has set it and i hope it only last a week or so till my body gets use the new dose.

Hi Helenlegs & Stephanie, I have found just by going up by 2.5mg (17.5mg total) that it has helped with the pain and its only day 2 of new dose. I still think that when i had the urethral dilutation 3yrs ago for frequency and constant full bladder pain, that somehow a nerve at the top of the ure...
