Summary
A Reddit user in r/cfs reported pain that mulungu, a nicotinic antagonist, relieved, and said 100 mg did make a difference for them. They resolved an issue with evening bisoprolol and amitriptyline, although amitriptyline did not touch their depression, which trazodone did; chlorphenamine helped them sleep.
