Amitriptyline: Often, low dose Amitriptyline is prescribed to treat insomnia and headaches itself. Have you been on it long? It may be difficult to tell if it is helpful with headaches if you take it with an analgesic. I would try calling the prescriber and updating him/her re : your headache symptoms.
