| 2 | back surgery | none | 25 mg then to 100 mg with no effect what so ever. Percocet is by far better than anything else for pain relief after injury or surgery. Vicodin is another good one. | M | 28 | 4 days | 9/17/2004 | 2 | back pain | headaches and nausea, throwing up for many hours, euphoric feeling, inability to concentrate. | It does help with my back pain, however, it definitely is not worth the number of times I've experienced severe nausea. Also, I've never before experienced any kind of addiction problem, but found myself becoming addicted to the euphoric feeling this drug gave me. | F | 37 | 6 months | 9/17/2004 | 5 | PAIN IN BACK | DEPRESSION IF YOU GO OFF OF IT | F | 54 | 2 years | 9/7/2004 | 1 | Headaches | imbalance, uncoordination, mood swings,difficulty focusing | quitting was even worse. More headaches, and felt horrible. zI was not on the med for a long time, so my experience with the drug may not be typical. | 44 | 2 weeks | 8/26/2004 | 5 | Migraine Headache pain | This is the only medication I can take that does not cause stomach upset during my horrible migraines, plus it takes the edge off of my pain. | If anyone knows where this may be ordered (inexpensive, of course) please email me and let me know...This is the only med that works for me, but hard to get a prescription for...Thank you for any info! Becky | F | 40 | 1 years | 8/25/2004 | 5 | fibromyalgia | none | Have taken this med off and on for 8 years and have never had a problem with withdrawal. | F | 48 | 8 years | 8/7/2004 | 1 | body pain | fatigue | does nothing to dull pain. only give me a vague sense of being spaced-out | M | 32 | 1 years | 8/6/2004 | 3 | osteo arthritis | tiredness and dizzy sometimes I felt sick | F | 48 | 3 years | 7/25/2004 | 5 | cervical disk/migraines | None that I noticed | I take Ultracet and found it was the only thing I can take that works and doesn't cause allergic reactions. Took it for 2 years and got off of it about 6 months ago but am going to start up again. | F | 51 | 2 years | 7/2/2004 | 4 | upper/lower back pain(bulged disc) | itching when first started it, mild euphoria, dry mouth | really only takes the edge off of my pain, a good mood inhancer. I actually take it more for my depression than my back pain. Can be addictive, I only have about 2 weeks left and am dreading withdraws if I don't get a renewed script, nasty withdraw symptoms! | F | 37 | 18 months | 6/19/2004 | 5 | severe back pain | dryness in mouth | Have a dependency to it and have known others that have too. Trying to come off it and am finding it quite difficult - sweats, sleeplessness, dizziness and typical withdrawal symptoms. | F | 53 | 4 years | 5/25/2004 | 4 | Arthrytic Joint Pain | One odd side effect is tramadol relieved tachycardia attacks I would have when working out hard. (Cutting back hedgerows). I have upped the dose on occasions and it causes sweats , jaw clenching. It does do wonders for my joint pain. Tramadol also makes my mind very alert. I take Toprol for High Blood Pressure and Tramadol seems to counteract the lassitude I experience taking that. | The beneficial effects seem to require a steady increase in dosage over time. 2 a day at first to 4, 5 or 6 a day now. I think I will need to stop taking it for a time. Not looking forward to that :-( | M | 53 | 2 years | 5/22/2004 | 1 | chronic pain after brain surgery | This medication is evil. I have been on 6-7 different meds and never experienced anything as unpleasant as this. I could not concentrate at all, even adding a simple list of numbers. I felt an unpleasant tingling in my head. I kept losing consciousness for a half-second at a time, kind of like after pulling an all-nighter but without the drowsiness. | Didn't do much for my pain, either. Had to take 2-3x the prescribed amount (which was admittedly conservative) and Tylenol along with it, and still it didn't work that well. If you need a short acting pain med, I'd recommend Vicodin, Norco, or Tylenol 3. | M | 25 | 2 days | 4/20/2004 | 4 | Migraines | Dizzy/Disoriented Problems urinating If I stopped taking abruptly, causes problems going to sleep at night. | M | 45 | 3 years | 4/9/2004 | 3 | For pain | anxiousness, wired, edgy. | Using for symptoms of upper back pain. Helps with the pain but then I cannot sleep at nights so I quit asap for fear of sleep deprevation. If you enjoy a little pill that gives you a boost like coffee go for it I cannot drink caffiene do to the fact I'm allready hyper enough so this one is not for me. | M | 36 | 2 days | 4/7/2004 | 4 | Migrain, Fibromyalsia, herniated di | Anxiety, but has done wonders for the migrains and fibromyalsia and herniated disks | F | 37 | 6 years | 3/23/2004 | 1 | migraine pain | severe nausea; 'out of body' feeling; NO relief from migraine pain. | F | 31 | 1 days | 3/21/2004 | 3 | Fibromyalgia, degnerative discs | None | Only took the edge off of pain,never made me feel pain free like Vicodin.I am still on it though, it is better then OTC pain relief. | F | 51 | 2 months | 3/18/2004 | 4 | back and neck pain, heniated discs | Can make one anxious. I take with a small dose (.25 mg) of xanax. | One good side effect of Ultram is elevated mood. There is a seritonin uptake effect similiar to SSRI medications. | M | 48 | 9 months | 3/17/2004 | 4 | back and neck pain, herniated discs | Can make one anxious. I take with a small dose (.25 mg) of xanax. | One good side effect of Ultram is elevated mood. There is a seritonin uptake effect similiar to SSRI medications. | M | 48 | 9 months | 3/17/2004 |
