At first i started with Oxycodon (2x10mg) in combination with Tylenol (3x 1000mg), but still in a lot of pain. I was unable to sleep or sit. Now I also take 2x75mg Lyrica/pregabaline, this works well. I am able to sleep and no side-efects.

Almost immediately after taking de oxycodon 20 mg, the pain is gone. This way I can move again. By moving I can work better on my rehab. During weaning myself of the oxycodon, the pain comes back but is bearable. Besides Oxycodon, I also use naproxen and paracetamol.

Took a tablet because of pain in my neck. (11 years ago I had an intervertebral disc removed.) Overnight my stomach turned itself completely inside out. Nauseous, bloated feeling, and rising acid reflux. I'm never taking this again ever.

The pain clinic prescribed this for me after an acute hernia. It helps well, no pain any more, but I have lost some of the feeling in my left leg, but that's nothing to do with the medicine.

it helps well for pain but I'm trying to figure out if it doesn't actually have too many side effects. at the moment i'm depressed, covered in rashes and feel like I can't breathe, I'm also an apnoea patient.

I use this when needed for a burning nerve pain in my bottom because of a hernia in my back. After reading some of the experiences on here I was a little wary of taking it but luckily I've had next to no side effects! Just a bit of grogginess the first few days. Works really well for the pain that I occasionally get so I'm quite happy.

Tramadol, for me, did not work as a pain killer. It made me so miserable that I stopped taking it after just a few days. Sweating a lot, nauseous and the feeling that I was sinking

I'm very happy with this medicine as far as pain relief goes, but the side effects it causes are somewhat difficult to cope with.

I was prescribed Diclofenac and later Tramadol for a hernia. I had to take these gastric protectors with them. Didn't have any stomach problems or side effects. Unfortunately the painkillers weren't strong enough and I had other medication prescribed for which I don't need to have gastric protectors.

Took this medicine for severe back pain radiating down into my legs, because of a hernia. For me it didn't help a great deal. It increased my pain threshold somewhat which meant I was able to function. I took 3 x 100 mg a day for between one month and 4. After the operation, happy to come off it.

After having a bad back hernia for 4 months, I was prescribed tramadol in combination with paracetamol. It takes away the worst of the pain. But you feel as sluggish as a sloth. 2 months later I had a hernia operation. After a week I was supposed to stop taking tramadol and everything else. So that's what I did, as prescribed by the doctor, specialist, physiotherapist and the GP. But you must N...
