Hi

I would have to say no, you don't get use to the strange feeling. I have been on tramadol for 7 months now and every time I take them I feel woozy and not quite with it. Don't take more than 1 at a time, I took 2 the first time and collapsed (not going there again). Sorry can't help with your other problem.

Good Luck xx

Hi, I was on codeine for years and always felt not quite right but I have been on tramadol for a year now and I feel fine. I did feel a bit woozy to start with but much better now. Although I will say I am not 100% for instance I don't like to drive after taking them as I know my reactions and thinking power are not what they should be.

Take it for a while and see how you feel. Most pain meds will make you feel like that until you get used to them as they are all opiate based, if you really don't like the feeling or it doesnt get better you could reduce the dose or try non steriodal anti-inflamitries (ibprofen) unless there is a reason why you cant take them of course, I think astmama is one reason. I take both as my pain is really bad. It depends how bad the pain is I suppose. I hated the feeling but the pain was worse so I took the codiene.

I hope this helps,

xx

If you can't take them then it sounds like tramadol is your only option. The only thing I could sugest would be to talk to your GP to see if there is anything else you can try, if the dizzy feeling doesnt get any better. x
