Nortriptyline. Sphincter of Oddi. IT WORKS.

I'm writing this blog for the purpose of it showing up in google searches and hoping I can help someone out there find some relief.

I had my gallbladder removed 2 years ago.
I found relief after the surgery, but still had some pain. And it was getting worse.
Sharp, squeezing-like pain in the area where my gallbladder used to be with slightly increased pancreas levels (specifically lipase).
Went through every test possible. Everything inside of me is fine. I just had chronic pain.
I most likely have sphincter of oddi. I never went through the tests that properly diagnose it (as the test that diagnose is risky), but my GI doctor ruled out everything else and determined this is most likely what I have.

He prescribed me 10mb of NORTRIPTYLINE a day. It took about 2-3 weeks after I started taking it before I felt relief.

4 months later, I am symptom free!!!!

No pain!! I can eat anything I want and my anxiety is basically non-existent.

Please... there are a lot of awful experiences on the internetz. Please consider my success story and ask your doctor about Nortriptyline (or another TCA type of anti-depressant) to treat your chronic stomach pain.
