tramadol hydrochloride (100mg) for hernia

I've been taking tramadol for 2 years because of hernias in my neck and back, and arthrosis, in ever increasing doses because you start to get used to it then the pain breaks through again so you have to increase the dose again. Every time I increase the dose, I notice the side effects more and more. The worst thing is the effect it has on my concentration. On the other hand though at the momen...

tramadol hydrochloride (50mg) for joint pain

because of the painful side effects of Simvastatin (joint pain especially when standing up and gardening) stopped taking the Simvastatin and I've now got Crestor Haven't noticed any side effects yet, but the pain hasn't completely subsided. I would say that it's about 75% reduced by the Tramadol HC1 50 PCH. My life has become more bearable and I can get back to my hobbies without needing someth...

tramadol hydrochloride (100mg) for chronic pain syndrome

Tried loads of painkillers for chronic pain (6 years). Nothing worked but this drug definitely does work for me. All of a sudden I can do things and I'm sleeping better. This is because of less pain overnight but I think it also relaxes me a bit. I have heard from someone that also uses it that she got really restless and unsettled on it. But I've noticed the opposite. It relaxes me without mak...

tramadol hydrochloride (100mg) for neuralgia

All of a sudden I woke up with a stiff neck. Left if a week but the pain just got worse and painkillers did nothing for it. Now I've got severe pain in my shoulder that's radiating down to my elbow and wrist.

tramadol hydrochloride (100mg/ml) for low back pain

I've had pain in my coccyx for years. I've been using Tramadol since 2014 and it has been good for the pain. But it does give me a burning feeling in my eyes, the doctor doesn't think that's because of the tramadol though so he referred me to the eye doctor. Curious to see if eye problems are one of the side effects...

tramadol hydrochloride (50mg) for back pain

I was given tramadol after a bad attack of lumbago that other medication wasn't able to touch. I felt totally drugged on tramadol. I felt hounded, dizzy, estranged from myself. It definitely made the pain go away but after just one capsule I felt the effects on into the next day (!!) until I felt normal again. Really strange and uncomfortable, like I wasn't really all myself. So I'm not having ...

tramadol hydrochloride (200mg) for neuralgia

this drug is worse than the illness but then when I want to stop all I hear is that I need to go and see a psychiatrist even though I don't have one! Side effects: altered personality, not myself at all, insomnia for 3-4 nights in a row, anxiety and panic, cold sweats and often feeling like I don't have a good life and have no future.

tramadol hydrochloride (300mg) for bronchitis

Got this after a diagnosis of bronchitis. Taken it now for bad period pain. Small tablet so easy to take. It does make me really dizzy, but also pain-free! That's the most important thing.
