Understandable. It is difficult to be patient when your hand is being held over the flame. You become frantic and will do anything that will stop the pain as soon as possible.
You might feel a subtle improvement as early as day 8. However, a more significant improvement can take 4 weeks at the right dosage.
What is the plan for dosing nortriptyline? Are you going to have blood tests for nortriptyline levels along the way?
I wish you the best of luck.
