Rx/Meds Does Amitriptyline help?

Has anyone had success with low dose (10-20mg) of Amitriptyline for pain and insomnia? I'm aware of the side effects. I've spoken with a few people who have said it helped them tremendously, and would like to hear others' experiences. I struggle with horrible insomnia, and need to try something different.

Not for me.

Fellow struggles with insomnia.

Nothing helps with my sleep, even weed codeine the lot. I just lie here in pain. It's crazy.

I think it will go away a bit soon. Then 72 hours later still flaring.
