celexa and amitriptyline hcl

Hi I started to take celexa about a month ago for my anxiety.  I have been having health problems and just alot going on.  I do notice the diffrence now.  Feeling better not 100% but nothing to complane about.  I have sleeping problems with the health problems and the anxiety doesn't help.  The doctor prescribed amitriptyline at bed to help sleep.  I read that there is a chance of seritonin? syndrom for this.  She only prescirbed 10 mg.  How much of a chance is there?  I asked while in the office and she said it was safe to take with all my medicines.  Any comments would help in my decision to take the new medicine and help myself start getting better by getting some much needed sleep.  Thanks in advance.

You can also try good old melatonin or homeopathic remedies like Calm's Forte.  If they work, cuts down on the medication.  If they don't, you can still try the medication.
