Amitriptyline is an antidepressant, which has never been approved, nor proven to help with pain, though some doctors do prescribe it for such as an off-label use.

Some people, with very mild pain, do get some relief from these types of medications, obviously you are not.

Your doctor should be checking what it still causing your pain and not just throwing medications at you.

If he doesn't do any checking or testing, then I suggest seeing a different doctor.
