Osteoarthritis

please can anyone offer any advice if they have found amitriptylin to be useful for osteoarthritis symptoms. Rheumatologist has said my outcome tests does not show any signs of inflammation so cannot prescribe medication and discharged me back to GP. I am in constant pain and told to take co-codamol daily but I’m still suffering with stiffness and feels like my joints are locking. This making me feel so unwell. I have now seen 2 separate rheumatologists who have basically said lose weight and get active. I swim when i can but even with the slightest change of routine seems to impact on my joints and leaves me feeling so unwell and weeks before I can start to be active again. I would be grateful for any advice.
