User Reviews for Tramadol

tramadol for Pain: Tramadol has been a great help with my wrist pain. I have found it is important to take the dose before the pain starts. I use this product mostly at bed time and sometimes if the pain gets to much for me during the day. It's nice to have a medicine I can use at work if needed without the issues of Narcotics to make the pain stop, giving me focus on tasks at hand. Great product.

tramadol for Pain: My primary gave me a prescription for tramadol after an ER visit from a sports injury. ER gave me a narcotic which caused stomach pain and very depressed feeling the next day. I am very active physically everyday 5k, 18 holes of golf, swimming on a consistent basis, not all in one day .I must say tramadol is great because it does not slow me down. I take it in afternoon and it keeps me pain free all night. If I stop it, very mild side effects a little like flu symptoms that do not last more than a day. Warning do not take an SSRI with other depression meds or benzodiazepines because it can cause heart problems and cause an acute crisis of heart failure.

tramadol for Pain: I have been suffering from pain from Tennis Elbow. Now, no pain; but be careful with dosage. I was groggy for 51hrs fooling with one 100mg dose when I was supposed to be taking it 3 times a day.

tramadol for Restless Legs Syndrome: I was given 50mg of tramadol 3x a day, initially for restless leg syndrome. This combined with gabapentin have helped so much with the restless legs syndrome. I also have chronic hip pain, have been dealing with it since I was a young child, due to my hips dislocating multiple times a month. This medicine works well, but I have had to have my doctor up the dose. I now take 300mg a day. I do have to say, that the side effects are terrible. I itch horribly! My whole body, but the worst place is my face! It also has made it so that I am unable to sleep at nights. It's worth it to not be in pain, and to lay down comfortably, but the side effects for me are bad!

tramadol for Anxiety: I've suffered from depression spells, and mood disorders, but have had CHRONIC anxiety/panic attacks my whole life. I've taken a benzodiazepine for countless years, which worked well for some of these things but not all. Over the years I tried many different supplement meds typically prescribed for these issues, but none worked or they had horrible side effects on me. So my doctor suggested Tramadol--I asked how this could even work (a pain medicine)? He explained its an off-label use of the medication but has found it very successful in other similar psychiatric patients and how he researched and explained how it chemically works in the brain (which I didn't really understand)...but IT WORKS AMAZINGLY! I finally live a NORMAL and HAPPY life!

tramadol for Back Pain: Cervical fusion C5-C6 after a car accident in 1987. Recent MRI show one cervical disc pressing on the spinal cord, and degeneration in remaining disks. Constant pain varies from a low of 2 to almost a Show-stopping 10. Most severe pain is right after getting out of bed, or low activity. Best feeling is when exercising or doing semi-hard work. Tramadol taken at 50mm doses 2x a day is the only pain medication that helps, aside from narcotics, which I refuse to take.

tramadol for Back Pain: I started taking Tramadol 50 mg twice daily - due to disc extrusion and severe leg pain. I am now on 200 mg in the morning and another 200 mg at dinner time. I would not be able to get out of bed if I did not take Tramadol, its an amazing difference it made also on my leg pain. Some side effects are, headaches and drowsiness

tramadol for Back Pain: This medication has helped tremendously since I started taking it last week. Just the drowsiness is the downside, this medicine works better than Vicodin, Percocet, etc.

tramadol for Fibromyalgia: I have struggled with many strong meds to help with the pain. All of them would have to keep increasing to work. Tramadol has given me my life back. I have been taking it for 2 years, and it worked immediately.

tramadol for Restless Legs Syndrome: I suffer day, night, evening, whenever it strikes with restless legs syndrome. I can't even sit through a movie at the theater anymore, but with the help of tramadol I can. It has made life so much easier. I don't like the sleepy side effects but compared with fidgety legs its a no brainer.

tramadol for Chronic Pain: Tramadol relieves most pain effectively without drowiness. It is also very cost effective

tramadol for Vulvodynia: Amazing relief! I had to take two 50mg pills at once for it to work. Works the best out of any medication I have tried.

Ultram (tramadol) for Chronic Pain: I've been taking tramadol for back and knee pain from a motorcycle accident for over a year, it is a great pain reliever that eliminates 90% of my pain issues without making me feel drowsy like hydrocodone or oxycodone. It controls my pain and I still live my normal life.

tramadol for Chronic Pain: Occasional itching of skin, even though I take allergy medicines, occasional headache, not as frequent as itching.

Ultram (tramadol) for Pain: I had arthroscopic rotator cuff surgery Feb 25th 2013 and my surgeon prescribe me 10mg Vicodin 6 times per day. After 4 weeks and "wanting to get me off of narcotics" he changed my prescription to 50mg Tramadol 4 times day. Honestly I believe that I am now receiving 1/10 the relief from pain that the Vicodin were providing.

tramadol for Anxiety: I have post traumatic stress disorder. Helped flashbacks.

tramadol for Fibromyalgia: Tramadol worked at first for awhile...But not now, I'm ready to ask for something new because I am tired of being in bed rest.

tramadol for Pain: I went to a orthopedic surgeon due to carpal tunnel in my left handed, which is my writing etc. hand. Doctor said surgery was the only way to go. I started doing research on the computer adamant not to have surgery. A doctor prescribed me tramadol 50 mg. Took for 3 weeks 1 x daily and ate pineapples daily along with zinc, garlic and muscle joint cream and within a month I am back to normal. Its amazing what you can learn.

Ultram (tramadol) for Pain: Ultram is the only medication I can take for pain that doesn't make me sick. Lortab, Norco, etc. all make me sick at my stomach. Darvocet used to be what I preferred as it didn't make me feel sick, hate that it was taken off the market. But after hand surgery and being prescribed Ultram, it's nice to know there is a pain medication out there that works and doesn't make me throw up. Highly recommend.
