I can also attest that amytriptyline can be extremely useful in alleviating CP
and testicular pain. The drug is more commonly called Elavil. If this drug
causes drowsiness, Doxepin is sometime substituted. Thanks for the tip about
propoxyphine. These off-label uses of such drugs are a hopeful sign of
progress.

Be careful. Propoxyphene (Darvon) is potentially addicting.
