Sorry to hear the Elavil didn't work - it's prescribed for many different types of neuralgia & nerve damage. I've been taking it for insomnia but it has the added benefit of dulling my normally over-sensitive teeth & jaw pain from TMJ syndrome. The dreams can get to be a bit much, and I do have the feeling that I'm dreaming too much to be sleeping while I'm asleep - almost lucid dreaming but not quite.
Something to keep in mind w/fibro is caffeine can make it worse, as can the typical migraine triggers - chocolate, the alkaloids in coffee & tea (even decaf), aged foods like wine, cheese, pickles, deli meats, sodium nitrates/nitrites, avocados, papaya & pineapple. Fibro flare-ups can also occur during seasonal allergy attacks & during the menstrual cycle.
