No sign of any problems from putting the Amitriptyline up to 40mg, but OTOH it doesn't seem to have done any good either. I think Amitriptyline has run its course and we need to try another approach. There again, it has confirmed that the right thigh thing is a nerve pain issue, which was the point of starting it in the first place.
No bad effects from the 'flu jab.

One consequence of putting the next chemo cycle back to the 27th rather than the 25th is that I need two extra days of chemo pills to fill the gap. For some reason I have enough spares of everything except the Aciclovir (anti-viral), and I'm six pills short of that. No idea why, maybe they're down the back of the sofa or somewhere...
Phoned the chemo nurses about that on Friday, but yet again their answering system appears not to be working. Will try again 08:00 or so later this morning, and if I can't get through will have to consider going in person later. That will be after lunch at Cote in Chelmsford with nephew David, over here from the USA for the run-up to Christmas.
