And I am talking about INTERNAL chest pain. I already know all about costochondritis which I have and is for the most part under control. I am to my wits end with going to the ER and doctors over and over for my heart and chest. I am perimenopausal and know hormones cause a part of my chest pain, PV

A member here told me that a combination of carbamazepine 200 mg and 25 mg amirtriptyline taken every night was 100% effective in preventing symptoms. He said that he still got pois when he tried amitriptyline alone but reported much less POIS on carbamazepine alone. This effect has been consistent
