I give up on pain meds!!!!!!! mostly I just live with pain was just hoping for some relief for once but won't happen.... | will never take again, when will the nausea and throwing up stop, only took 2 doses... | F | 49 | 1 days 50 4X day | 4/21/2015 | 2 | I am taking it for severe joint pai | have been having severe knee and hip pain for about 15 years although I have taken much stronger medications I do not wish to takethe stronger narcotics anymore But tramadol just does not help me very much at all and there is got to be something that is a little stronger then this without making it a narcotic | F | 33 | 1 years 50 mg | 3/25/2015 | 1 | impacted wisdom tooth removal | Spaced out couldnt tell if i was awake or asleep dizzy racing heart extremely moody kind of depressed | Oral surgeon prescribed this garbage it did mothing for pain i called and told them the effects i was having and it didnt help pain and they said we cant give you anything stronger lol they wouldnt be saying that if it was them experiening pain from wisdom tooth surgery. If someone jas legit pain why should they have to suffer when something that works can be perscribed RIDICULOIS!!!! | F | 38 | 3 days 50 | 2/12/2015 | 2 | Tramadol..servers chronic pain | Lost all Moto-nuero ability | Tramadol ..required for severe nerve pain and chronic pain from a MVA , allergic reaction according to GP | F | 37 | 1 days 1X day | 12/22/2014 | 1 | Bacterial infection: Pain, Ache | Tremors, Heart feeling. "Faint" or "Fluttering." Anxiety, stress.. | F | 32 | 1 days 50mgX2X3 | 11/4/2014 | 5 | back pain ,arthritis | had to take the last dose 6 hrs before bed or had trouble getting to sleep | excellent pain med for moderate acute and chronic pain. I had no trouble quitting it when I was pain free. It does raise the norepinephrine level a bit giving an energy boost. I had also read it stimulates the immune system to an extent unlike opioids which suppress it | M | 30 years 50mg 2X day | 10/30/2014 | 5 | Post surgical pain (cancer) | The only bothersome side affect that I have is a very dry mouth. I was on dilaudid 4mg every 4 hours for 6 months after my upper left lobectomy. The doctor wanted me off of it of course so switched me to tramadol. The scar on my back is 9 inches long and my muscles and nerves were cut so I will always have pain. The tramadol definitely takes away my pain and gives me a mental boost. If I forget a dose, I really feel it in my back and my mood. I am cancer free today and very happy! Stage 3b lung cancer. As far as withdrawal when I no longer need it, I doubt I will ever come off if it. If I'm addicted I feel it's ok because at least I'm able to live a good quality of life!! | F | 51 | 2 years 100mg 4xd | 7/2/2014 | 2 | osteoarthritis pain | Kill my stomach, was horrible, like a bomb in my stomach | M | 64 | 5 days 25mg 2X day | 6/18/2014 | 5 | Severe chronic pain (Lupus, FM) | constipation, increased sweating | This drug has been a miracle for me. It takes a while to kick in, and I wished it would be more fast-acting. However, it does take away the severe pain I have been living with for 5 years. Without Tramadol, I wouldn't be able to function, and now I can lead an - almost - normal life. If I have some breakthrough pain during the day, Tylenol Arthritis takes care of it. Very rarely do I need to take 100mg at bedtime. The constipation is greatly relieved by taking two soft gels of Liquid Magnesium Oxide (important as Magnesium comes in different formulations/ only the oxide one helps; also works as a muscle relaxant) at night. | F | 44 | 10 months 150 1X day | 5/26/2014 | 3 | Lumbar injury | Mild occasional headache, some mild euphoria | F | 33 | 10 days 30 mg 3xd | 5/1/2014 | 5 | herniated discs arthritis | its hell trying to wean of off this if you havnt started it don't it helps in the beginning but not work all time | F | 53 | 10 years 50mg | 4/27/2014 | 5 | sciatica,arthritis | It makes me feel very alert but relaxed,kind of don't care feeling. It feels like I could go to sleep but I can't. I call it twilight sleep b/c when I try to sleep, I am in and out every few minutes untill it wears off, which it takes up to 18hours. Next day I have bad headache. | I only take it as needed, 30 pills last me easy one year. It does work like a magic and I like the feeling when on it. I have OCD and SPD so being on it makes me feel relaxed but very alert and "aware" and "friendly". One pill lasts up to 18 hours. I use to suffer from Migraines and it did help with the pain some, however now without Migraines, it gives mi headache the next day. My boyfriend on the other hand gets very sick and throws up. He has very bad Dermatitis but can't take it. I only take it when absolutely needed b/c I worry it might have bad effect on my heart long term plus I don't want to go on other pain pill like codeine b/c it makes me very sick. I know someone who takes it every day and it affects him the same way, very relaxed feeling almost like antidepressant. This is the only pain pill that works for me very well. Few years ago I had abcessed tooth and took 2-100 pills every 3 hours and it killed the pain but I was VERY dizzy and could not drive. | M | 52 | 12 years 50-100 1X AN | 1/13/2014 | 4 | fibromyalgia | First noticed itching but that went away in time. I lost almost 30 pads and I was already thin due to ed. I started to binge eat 6 to 8 hrs a day with high intense sugar cravings and carbs. This wasn't a good drug for me so I stopped cold turkey. | F | 36 | 3 months 200mg | 12/13/2013 | 4 | nerve pain | none | take reg tramadol the tramadol er doesn't work as well | F | 63 | 5 years 100mg 4X day | 12/5/2013 | 2 | Endometriosis/ fibroid/ menses | Felt like I needed to take more of it, didn't stop pain just made me numb and the withdrawal from the drug was the Horrible! No withdrawal symptoms from true opioids but this was awful. This drug should be taken off the market! | F | 31 | 5 months 400 | 8/6/2013 | 5 | chronic pain | none | I have to stand or walk most of the day at work and suffer from chronic pain in my feet. Doctors have not agreed on a diagnosis, from tendinitis, or nerve damage, to prolapse of bones or tissues. This medication allows me to function almost normally when I need to. | F | 61 | 6 months 25 mg 2X day | 8/3/2013 | 5 | Lupus, FM | none whatsoever | When my doctor prescribed this medication and I took it for the first time, I couldn't believe how I had survived without it for so long. The pain in my joints and connective tissue can be excruciating and would normally force me to stay in bed all day. I now take 3x50mg tablets at 6:00am every morning, and by 9:00am I am usually able to get up and get ready for work. Without Tramadol/Ultram I couldn't even lift my arms to take a shower. Wonder drug for me. | F | 42 | 1 years 150 1X day | 7/13/2013 | 4 | Lupus and Fibromyalgia pain | Hard to say exactly what symptoms are caused by Tramadol, as I am on numerous meds, but I do experience mild relief from sometimes MAJOR lupus pain. It does not make me confused, sleepy, or dizzy. Weight gain when I started this and 2 other meds, but it doesn't seem that is common with Tramadol, so I don't think it's the culprit. I sweat like a menopausal woman or chemo patient just by vacuuming. It may be the lupus, but my doctor feels that it is the Tramadol causing it. Yuck. | I like this medication. For most people with mild to moderate pain, this is a great choice. My lupus affects my joints and tendons, and it often feels like someone is injecting battery acid into my joints, so I'm on the high end of pain many days. It is not strong enough for all of my pain, so I have a breakthrough pain med, but it is a good daily medication, and when I miss it, I do not feel any side effects, i.e. it is not addictive for me. The only downside is the sweats. Keep a handkerchief handy just in case. Also be careful not to take too many. It slows your breathing, and can cause you to stop breathing in your sleep if you overdose. | F | 38 | 1 years 100 mg 4X day | 7/2/2013 |
