When the neurologist spoke to yours truly about it, I remember him saying that the drug was originally for people suffering from epilepsy and that they found it had helped people with neurological conditions, so it was worth a try.
Just think of it, they've got children on the front page of their website.

In 2010, 300,000-400,000 people in the UK had been put on Amitriptyline and Lofpramine. University College London did a study on the pharmaceutical, they tracked almost 15,000 people for around eight years. Dr Mark Hammer said, "Our study is the first to contain a representative sample of the whole community". "The majority of the previous work in this area has focussed on clinical cardiac patients, so studies in healthy participants is very important".
"Tricyclics have a number of side effects, they are linked to increased blood pressure, weight gain and diabetes and these are all risk factors for cardiovascular disease".

Now due to the high risk factors involved with these pharmaceuticals, they should never be given to people that have lymphedema or any other vascular condition. They should never be given to people that have had family members that have had a heart condition, a stroke, high blood pressure or lymphedema.

The fact of the matter is each medical department is only interested in it's own speciality, and they are not looking at the bigger picture when they are looking at the health of a patient. Even when health conditions overlap. Things have got to change in the medical profession.
