And the good news is?

Well, I've just gotten back from the GP's office and......I'm being sent to a neurologist. My doc reckons there is something wrong in my noggin, which has been hiding itself as migraine symptoms. Hopefully not, otherwise i'll have spent the past ten years with something growing alongside my brain. Very odd prospect. Oh gad what if it's a mutant twin?! Might explain my evils tendancies, mwahahahaha!
On a serious note, I got offered Amitriptyline as a migraine medication....which is also a psychoactive drug or more specifically a tricyclic anti-depressant. But, in small doses can actually stop migraines. Unfortunately, my doc seems to think that it wouldn't be appropriate for me to be on them as they more than likely won't touch the pain. Has anyone out there been on Amitriptyline? What's it like as a drug? Side effects maybe? I'm a little curious as I've been give Sumatriptan, but the last time I was given it the drug didn't touch the sides; so Amitriptyline may be the next step.
I dont think my boss is going to like me taking time off.
